'Bel Canto’ simply means beautiful singing. This comprehensive term covers the vocal qualities of the great singers of the seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth centuries (baroque classical and Romantic) which gave much attention to vocal purity, (beauty of tone), control, and dexterity in ornamentation. It is Bel Canto Australia’s endeavour to introduce, in an educational form, this much loved and treasured art-form to the aspiring young artists. |
