Abstract
Vocal fatigue is the diminished vocal ability (or perception of such by the vocal performer) when effort remains constant. In the studio, both vocal ability and vocal effort are assessed by student-teacher interaction. The most confounding problem in dealing with vocal fatigue is not knowing how much voice rest is needed for recovery. During vocal fold vibration, fluids and protein structures are tossed back and forth repeatedly, capillaries are widened and narrowed, and all of the transport of nutrients and cellular waste products through the tissues is affected. What is currently a mystery is the speed of which a redistribution of fluids or a disruption of nutrient and waste product transportation can be reset to normal.
