About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1894 Excerpt: ...as well as the absolute circumference of the chest in singers is larger than in those who do not sing, and it increases with the age and with the time devoted to singing. The expansion of the chest and the vital capacity of the lungs are greater in singers than in other persons, and they likewise increase with age and practice.

The height of the cavity depends partly on the structure of the mouth...
