This article addresses the unique and relational character of the voice, brought by Adriana Cavarero, but also the inclusive and feminist power of vocal research in contrast to a logocentric and melocentric approach that is mostly given to vocality. As a "leftover" or excess arising from a discourse, the voice is ignored theoretically and even artistically, even by more disruptive authors such as Judith Butler. However, creators/vocalists/thinkers like Cathy Berberian, Antonin Artaud, Meredith Monk, Fatima Miranda, Roy Hart, Diamanda Galàs, Laurie Anderson give us inspiring clues on how the voice can break established paradigms.
