| summary | The first lecture also presents the traditional classification of voice quality based on Laver (1980), reinterpreting the categories within the Laryngeal Articulator Model. Laryngeal voice quality categories, beginning with phonatory state, are presented first, then oral (supralaryngeal) categories. States of the larynx, revised from the earlier notion of ‘states of the glottis,’ defines all possible configurations of the isthmus of the airway that are necessary to characterize the sound qualities generated in the larynx. These states can now be shown to parallel the description of phonation types, which have a long history in descriptive phonetics as the core of the concept of voice quality since they are the first source of sound modulation in the vocal tract. All voice qualities from the taxonomy are illustrated canonically (‘cardinal’ reference points defined by auditory theory). States of the larynx are illustrated with still images, and the corresponding phonation types are illustrated with phonetically modelled video clips to show the movement of laryngeal structures and the sound quality that is generated. Drawings (artistic representations) will accompany the photographic images where possible. All of the speech sounds in the voice quality taxonomy and in an expanded set of IPA consonants and vowels are presented in an iOS app – iPA Phonetics – which will be shown and explained. |
