The Transgender Singing Voice Conference, aimed at supporting gender-diverse people in the pursuit of their literal and figurative voice, is a two-day, multidisciplinary, research- and practice-oriented event. This event welcomes those who support the transgender and nonbinary people from a vocal and/or musical perspective – music educators, voice teachers, speech-language pathologists, music therapists, bodywork practitioners – and provides music events and voice training resources for transgender people.
TSVC 2021 will be held at a new home – details TBA. Stay tuned!
