stemvorming

English translation: vocal training

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Dutch term or phrase:stemvorming
English translation:vocal training

Music / education
Dutch term or phrase: stemvorming
'Stemvorming' is part of the musical training you can choose to do at a music school. The only context I have is that 'dhr. X is docent voor stemvorming'. Looking at the websites of a couple of music schools in English-speaking countries, I'm thinking that the translation may be along the lines of 'vocal technique'.

Who can help me out with this one? All input appreciated!
