„Singing is a movement of our soul towards light“
Max Bewer (1861 - 1921)
Teaching
For several years, Elisabeth Pawelke has been teaching singing and voice training within her activities in various music schools. Her education as academic speech and voice therapist is an unique asset to her knowledge of speaking technique, speech formation, articulation and voice treatment in vocal pedagogy. For her singing lessons she received the quality certificate of the Bayerische Tonkünsterverband. She is a member of the Bundesverband Deutscher Gesangspädagogen (BDG), for which - within the Team BDG vor Ort - she organized advanced trainings for singing teachers and singers at the University of Music and Performing Arts Munich as well as in the University Hospital of the Technical University Munich. At Dr Iris Eicher's practice she works as voice therapist, vocal coach as well as speech trainer. She is also a lecturer for voice and speech at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität Munich. She regularly gives courses and lectures on singing and voice science, historical harp, ensemble playing of early music as well as medieval music theory.
