Voice in Flow – Experiencing and Learning Flow in Singing "Flow"—we encounter this term increasingly often in everyday life; people strive for this blissful state that causes the sense of time and space to blur. But what exactly is the secret behind flow? How can it be achieved? And above all, how does the so-called flow cycle affect my work as a singer? This book answers all these questions by clearly explaining the latest scientific findings from flow research and linking them to the principle of "inner security." Flow is not a myth, but a process waiting to be discovered. *Voice in Flow* is the first book to explicitly address flow in the context of singing, providing readers with numerous tips and exercises to help them experience flow on stage. Previously unpublished notated vocal exercises round out the book's practical section.

The German-Lebanese musician, composer and educator Rabih Lahoud will take over a professorship in the field of artistic-pedagogical study programs with a focus on community music at the University of Music Würzburg from the winter semester 2025/2026.

Music is for Prof. Rabih Lahoud the language of understanding. Lahoud stands for artistic excellence and emotional depth and is one of the most distinguished voices of a new generation of music mediators. In Würzburg, Lahoud will act as the centre's artistic head.

The social relevance of community music is uncontroversial and has been increasing for several years. The Hochschule für Musik Würzburg is now focusing on this area at university level and thus closes a gap in the nationwide study offer.

"I am very happy to support this unique location in Germany as a professor."
