Description
Today’s guest is Dr Trineice Robinson-Martin.Dr Trineice Robinson-Martin is a world-class performer, voice researcher, author and educator who has travelled and taught students from all over the world, as well as lectured nationally and internationally on numerous topics relating to singing voice pedagogy, and vocal style. In this episode, Trineice speaks candidly about the struggles she endured in higher education where she discovered that there was a disconnect between academic singing and the singing that she grew up within her church community. Triniece explains the more time she spent trying to sound academically correct, the more authentically incorrect her singing became. This motivated her to study voice on a deeper level and she completed her doctoral studies seeking to understand the cultural aesthetics and components of a vocal performance in gospel music. Based on her research, Trineice created Soul Ingredients, her trademarked teaching methodology, which focusses on student centred learning and encourages personal expression across African American based styles such as jazz, gospel, R & B, blues and other pop styles. In this episode, Triniece also shares her views on why educational institutions still endorse a one size fits all Eurocentric training model, the responsibilities of representing the black community in the singing voice community, and much much more.
