Peter French on BBC World Service programme on the human voice

Posted on 20 July 2015

Prof Peter French featured on the BBC World Service programme "The Power of the Human Voice"

The Power of the Human Voice

The human voice is a thing of great power and persuasion; we use it to speak to one another, to sing and cry, to laugh and scream. But our voices - which are as ancient as humanity itself - are also at the forefront of the very latest developments in technology. Increasingly, our voices activate machines, are used to prove innocence or guilt in criminal trials, to provide a means of digital communication for people with voice disorders. With Suzy Klein to discuss the human voice are the cognitive psychologist Diana Deutsch the acoustic, forensic and voice analysis expert Professor Peter French and the opera singer Anna Devin.
