N2  - Singer and professor of voice, Jan Shapiro gives a guided tour through the art and science of the jazz vocal style. She hones in on what makes jazz singing distinctive, and suggests along the way how other types of singers can make use of jazz. She also examines such key matters in jazz singing as the role of improvisation, the place of specific singers who influenced and even defined vocal jazz as we know it today, and the unique way in which jazz incorporates vibrato, conversational delivery, rhythmic phrasing, and melodic embellishment and improvisation
