The sound field of a voice, in which intonation or singing predominates, has thepower to transport the listener to a place of emotional reception that makes it possible for everyone, even through a collective experience, such as a great rock concert, to travel a path towards the depth of their individuality and there to emerge a dense content emotional. There are some authors like Barthes1, Cavarero2, El Haouli3 and Zumthor4, who tell us about this symbolic power of voices in a context that goes far beyond words.
