David Alan Stern, "The Sound and Style of American English", The Third Edition


Dialect Accent Specialists | 2006 | ISBN: 0926862936 | English | MP3 128 Kbps +PDF Booklet | Lenght: 07:53:46 | 460 Mb






People from many professions, not just acting, want to reduce their native accent and/or make themselves understood more clearly when speaking American English. Business professionals are particularly interested in presenting a more distinctly American speech presence. Learning to speak American English naturally is becoming increasing popular with actors from Europe, Asia, and Africa, especially as the US stage, film, and television industries present such significant increases in dramatic opportunities. Dr. David Alan Stern’s series highlighting American accents for actors of other native languages has become the premiere acting tool in the non-American actor’s accent arsenal.




Because pronunciation changes alone are not enough to convincingly reproduce any accent, this self-instructional program provides specific skills and drills to learn the resonance, lilt, rhythm, and pronunciation of the American dialect and advanced pronunciation for colloquial speech styles. Drills to help you integrate your knowledge into phrases, sentences, passages, and finally, into your own speech are also included.




Not just boring pronunciation drills!


This straightforward and fun technique teaches you:



American Intonation


Featuring the widely acclaimed Jump Up & Step Down system for Americanizing pitch and speech rhythm.

Muscularity and voice placement


Featuring the Mid-Tongue Muscularity technique for creating American resonance and paving the way for the production of American-sounding phonemes.

Advanced pronunciation

Featuring: Final Consonants & Clusters, L/R and S/Z Differentiation, Medial T and -ED endings, & Colloquial Speech Styles.



About the auteur
DAVID ALAN STERN, Ph.D. founded DIALECT ACCENT SPECIALISTS, INC. in Hollywood in 1980. He has coached business executives, broadcast media personalities, government officials, actors, and members of the clergy to modify accents and speak more expressively for over thirty years.

Dr. Stern developed his "Sound & Style" accent-reduction technique while teaching non-native actors to audition for the roles of American-born characters. Since the publication of Sound & Style's first edition in 1987, he has taught his effective and entertaining methods to thousands of ESL teachers, speech pathologists, and speech/drama coaches at his own weekend workshops, and at national, state, and local conferences of both TESOL and the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. Corporate accent-reduction and speech clients have included executives from: Bateman-Eichler-Hill-Richards, Beech Aircraft, Mitsubishi Bank, NCR Corp., TRW Corp., Union Carbide, and Wells Fargo Bank.




Dr. Stern is now Professor of Dramatic Arts at his Alma Mater, the University of Connecticut. He continues to do occasional film and television work in addition to serving as Dialect Coach for the Connecticut Repertory Theatre and the Berkshire Theatre Festival.

Sergio Atzeni - Racconti con colonna sonora




Sergio Atzeni – Racconti con colonna sonora


Italian | Il Maestrale| 2002 | EPUB | Pages 192 | ISBN: 888610961X | 1.51 Mb






Nove storie sommerse di bassifondi e periferie sterminate, dai porti del mediterraneo fino alle lagune del nord Europa, con visioni africane. Racconti che rubano il tempo a sax, tamburi e giri ostinati di basso. Storie dettate dalla musica: «Ogni musica, evoca immagini, in chi ascolta … chi riesce, a immaginare Toro Seduto che guida le truppe, e Custer laggiù in fondo, e le urla dei morenti – con La Primavera, in sottofondo?». Così Sergio Atzeni – l'energia dei trent'anni – danza il proprio rito di iniziazione al mestiere di scrittore. Batte e conta i passi e il tempo di un rigoroso lavoro di parola dove si fondono rhythm'n'blues, rock, fumetto, pop music, slang criminale, jazz e giovani vite randagie. La carica progettuale, il respiro della prosa, le coordinate poetiche sono già quelle dell'imminente e grandiosa stagione romanzesca: dall'Apologo del giudice bandito a Il quinto passo è l'addio. Un capitolo indispensabile alla lettura del romanzo-Atzeni.
