The first purpose of this study is to explore the perception of vocal health of music educators and individuals with outside occupations who currently sing the contemporary gospel style. The second purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between vocal usage during employment hours, and self-reported vocal quality when singing the contemporary gospel style.
