Abstract
  • This document examines the suitability of the Czech language for legato singing and its educational benefits for vocal students at various levels. Despite challenges related to syllabic stress and vowel length, Czech is highly valuable for both vocal studios and beginning students. The work includes an anthology that assesses the pedagogical effects on young undergraduate singers navigating the Czech vocal repertoire. It offers a concise review of Czech lyric diction and its common difficulties. The anthology features eight Czech art songs, with selections tailored to different voice types, each accompanied by a composer's introduction and a pedagogical analysis highlighting the song’s advantages for specific voice types. Additionally, it provides a comprehensive table of the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) and dual translations for both student and teacher use.
