Both writers provide an informal vocalist's anatomy, with instructions for the proper training, care, and disposition of the tongue, lungs, diaphragm, mouth and the voice itself. Tetrazzini deals with the foundations of singing in breath control; tone emission and attack; and, sending the would-be performer to the mirror, facial expression and dress. Caruso remarks on tone production; such faults as the "white voice," "throaty voice", and "goat voice"; the necessity of good diction; and also diet and the part superstition plays in certain singers' performances.;

Abstract	"Of the thousands of people who visit the opera during the season few outside of the small proportion of the initiated realize how much the performance of the singer is dependent on previous rehearsal, constant practice and watchfulness over the physical conditions that preserve that most precious of our assets, the voice." So begins Enrico Caruso, whose lively discussion along with that of Luisa Tetrazzini, addresses the developing singer with advice, useful knowledge and encouragement in the art of singing. Both writers provide an informal vocalist's anatomy, with instructions for the proper training, care, and disposition of the tongue, lungs, diaphragm, mouth and the voice itself. Tetrazzini deals with the foundations of singing in breath control; tone emission and attack; and, sending the would-be performer to the mirror, facial expression and dress. Caruso remarks on tone production; such faults as the "white voice," "throaty voice", and "goat voice"; the necessity of good diction; and also diet and the part superstition plays in certain singers' performances.
