Evidence-Led Vocology & Applied Acoustic Science
Decoding Extreme Techniques, Biomechanical Efficiency, & High-Performance Vocal Mechanics
Growing up as a young singer, Make Loud Noise Director, Anita Marie Martin, first saw medically prescribed vocal rest on the TV show MASH. Watching Dr. Charles Emerson Winchester III prescribe vocal rest for Major Margaret Houlihan’s laryngitis lit a spark that defined a career.
From then on, Anita Marie began collecting data on how medicine, allied health, and vocal pedagogy intersect. In 1989, the intersection of these practices was named: Vocology. A high-performance Vocology team is a specialized medical and functional ecosystem:
GP & ENT/Laryngologist (Medical Diagnosis)
SVS Speech-Language Pathologist (Clinical Rehabilitation)
Voice Physiotherapist (Somatic Alignment)
Vocal Specialist/Teacher (Functional Pedagogy)
At Make Loud Noise, we utilize the same industry-leading voice visualization technology (VoceVista) used by medical researchers, acousticians, and voice scientists to capture your unique Voice Print in real-time. As certified Mental Health and Vocal Health First Aiders, we translate complex medical jargon into a functional vocal care plan designed specifically for your instrument. We don’t guess. We know.
