Alternative Vocalities : Listening Awry to Peter Maxwell Davies's Eight Songs for a Mad King,
single work
criticism
(p. 101-117)
'This essay analyzes the use of extended-voice technique and "extreme" vocalizations in Peter Maxwell Davies's avant-garde music-theatre work Eight Songs for a Mad King. Using poststructuralist and musicological theories of voice, the essay makes the case for a conception of "queer vocality" that disrupts and subverts socio-cultural and aesthetic norms.' (p. 101)
