In this episode, they turn their attention to the voice, with voice specialist and speech and language therapist, Lydia Hart. They explore where our voice comes from, why we all sound so different, how much can we change our voice, and what we should be doing to take care of our voices.

I was lucky to find some more background info on an Aboriginal song I have been sharing though t seems a little different to how I was taught it. This will be the more authentic version and wording.

It also was shared on the old radio schools music programme Singing Together many decades ago so has had a varied journey into community music repertoire.
