Advancement in singing ability using The YUBA Method in patients with cochlear implants.

Conclusion. Although overall improvement was not so dramatic due to a lack of retention, session by session advancement of matching pitch for targeted MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) sound was predominantly obvious.

Although overall improvement was not so dramatic due to a lack of retention, session by session advancement of matching pitch for targeted MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) sound was predominantly obvious. It was proved that The YUBA Method worked to improve singing ability for patients with cochlear implants. Objectives. This study sought to verify whether or not the Yuba theory and method improved the singing ability of patients with cochlear implants. Subjects and methods. Based on diagnosis, the instructor experimented to improve matching pitch of singing for three patients with cochlear implants using The YUBA Method. The mean fundamental frequencies and standard deviation of singing were then compared with before and after instructions to patients. The instruction was given for over 40 days at the University of Tokyo Hospital. Results. For each patient, the mean fundamental frequencies of their singing approached the mean MIDI specified frequencies as references for tests done in all three songs. Overall, the SD between fundamental frequencies of their singing and reference MIDI sounds became smaller.
