El desarrollo de la técnica vocal está íntimamente ligado al cambio procedimental, técnico y acústico del paso de la voz hablada –«Lector»– a la voz cantada –«Cantor»–, esto es, del «Ars Predicandi» al «Ars Cantandi». Tomando como base la teoría de los retóricos y, especialmente, a partir de la cantidad y la calidad que debe tener una voz para ser considerada perfecta, según Isidoro de Sevilla, se estructura todo un árbol vertebrador que define, desgrana y reglamenta la aptitud, actitud, categoría y jerarquía que ha de poseer y ostentar el «Cantor» en la Edad Media. En este artículo se muestran las principales teorías sobre la producción de la voz en el «Lector» y el «Cantor» en la Edad Media recogidas en la tratadística especializada de la época. Debido a la trascendencia para la técnica vocal y el canto que tiene el hecho de conocer específicamente cómo fue el desarrollo de la voz en este período histórico, es necesario profundizar en esta materia que, a día de hoy, aún no ha sido suficientemente estudiada por la Musicología.
The development of the Vocal Technique is closely linked to the procedural, technical and acoustic change of the transition from the spoken voice –"Lector"– to the singing voice –"Cantor"–, that is to say, from the "Ars Predicandi"– to the "Ars Cantandi". Based on the theories of the Rhetoricians and, specially, from the qualities that a voice must have to be considered a perfect one by Isidore of Seville, writen in his Etymologies, a whole tree is vertebrated and structured which defines, shells and regulates the aptitude, attitude, category and hierarchy that the "Cantor" must possess and hold in the Middle Ages. This article shows the main theories on the production of the voice in the Lector and the Cantor in the Middle Ages, as contained in the specialised literature of the time. Due to the importance for Vocal Technique and Singing of knowing specifically how the voice was developed in this historical period, it is necessary to study this subject in depth, which has not yet been sufficiently studied by Musicology.
