Voices Found
Voices Found: Free Jazz and Singing contributes to a wave of voice studies scholarship with the first book-length study of free jazz voice. It pieces together a history of free jazz voice that spans from sound poetry and scat in the 1950s to the more recent wave of free jazz choirs.

Vocal jazz groups, scat & vocalese
Eric Fardet propose une redéfinition du terme " vocalese " au profit de l'acception " transcription pour voix en jazz ". Il s'appuie sur cette nouvelle définition pour rassembler les groupes Double Six, Swingle Singers et Quire au sein d'une école parisienne de jazz vocal, école vocale d'improvisation simulée (Hodeir, 1997) qui adopte la technique de transcription comme pratique commune aux trois groupes vocaux. Il replace aussi ces techniques musicales au sein des phénomènes onomatopéiques et resitue les pratiques polyphoniques au sein du jazz. Il étudie enfin différentes écritures du "vocalese" (Double Six, Swingle Singers) et compare le style des Double Six à celui du groupe Lambert, Hendricks & Ross.
