Alfred Wolfsohn (23 September 1896 – 5 February 1962) was a German singing teacher who suffered persistent auditory hallucination of screaming soldiers, whom he had witnessed dying of wounds while serving as a stretcher bearer in the trenches of World War I. Wolfsohn was diagnosed with shell shock, but did not respond to treatment. He subsequently cured himself by vocalizing extreme sounds, bringing about what he described as a combination of catharsis and exorcism.

  • Alfred Wolfsohn (Berlín, 23 de setembre de 1896 - 5 de febrer de 1962) va ser un professor de cant alemany. Va ser el fundador d'una escola molt peculiar d'educació de la veu coneguda actualment a través de la tasca del Teatre Roy Hart. Entre els seus alumnes cal destacar a Charlotte Salomon. Les seves experiències observant els laments de soldats ferits i moribunds durant la Primera Guerra Mundial i, més tard, el rebuig per les veus emeses de manera massa artificial que preponderaven al Berlín de l'època de Hitler, el portaren a explorar la naturalesa de la veu i les seves immenses possibilitats. Va ser un pioner de la investigació en aquest camp, i els seus estudis innovadors mostraren el potencial de la veu no tan sols com un instrument d'expressió artística sinó també com a instrument per al desenvolupament de la persona; en aquest sentit les seves orientacions s'han fet servir en l'àmbit de l'educació i en terapèutica. L'objectiu de Wolfsohn era aconseguir una emissió de la veu molt lliure, un tipus de veu que ell anomenava «la veu del futur». (ca)
  • Alfred Wolfsohn (23 September 1896 – 5 February 1962) was a German singing teacher who suffered persistent auditory hallucination of screaming soldiers, whom he had witnessed dying of wounds while serving as a stretcher bearer in the trenches of World War I. Wolfsohn was diagnosed with shell shock, but did not respond to treatment. He subsequently cured himself by vocalizing extreme sounds, bringing about what he described as a combination of catharsis and exorcism. Inspired by the range and flexibility of his voice, which developed as a consequence of the exercises and experiments he pursued, Wolfsohn began teaching others to use his vocal techniques as a form of therapeutic expression, which were later incorporated into drama therapy and music therapy. Meanwhile, some pupils of Wolfsohn used the extraordinary vocal range they developed to create performing arts productions, which influenced avant-garde theatre and experimental music. After Wolfsohn died in 1962, many of his long-standing pupils formed a theatre company called the Roy Hart Theatre, under the direction of South African actor Roy Hart, who had studied with Wolfsohn for fifteen years, which continued to influence practices within expressive arts therapies and the performing arts.

  • Alfred Wolfsohn, né le 23 septembre 1896 à Berlin et mort le 5 février 1962 à Londres, est un professeur de chant allemand, créateur d'une méthode de développement de la voix connue aujourd'hui sous le nom de méthode du Roy Hart Theatre, du nom d'un disciple de Wolfsohn. C'est un pionnier dans le domaine de la recherche vocale ; ses études ont révélé le potentiel de la voix non seulement comme instrument d'expression artistique, mais aussi comme instrument de développement personnel et de thérapie. Le but de Wolfsohn est de développer une voix libre, sans chaînes, qu'il appelle « la Voix du Futur ». Il a eu pour élève Paula Lindberg, belle-mère de l'artiste peintre Charlotte Salomon, et il figure dans les peintures de cette dernière sous le nom d'Amadeus Daberlohn. (fr)
