THE SLEEPY HOLLOW SOPRANO the history How do you teach a singer how to sing?  Without proper training, misuse of one’s voice can lead to tiny nodules on the vocal chord.  Over time, these polyps can cause abnormal vibration in the voice box. For one soprano, this meant a trip to Sleepy Hollow. the magic Phelps’ voice doctor (laryngologist) diagnoses the causes of voice problems and treats nodules and other conditions so singers’ voices can heal.  Speech pathologists - who happen to be classically trained singers themselves - teach them new ways to sing, so they won’t ever have to come back. the legend Few hospitals offer this advanced treatment. And in the Hudson Valley, the Phelps Institute for Voice and Swallowing is the only one equipped with the unique know-how and experience to provide it. Attend a free voice clinic at Phelps.
