Voice and the Alexander Technique

I have bought so many popular singing programs. Even singing for success and mastering mix. I sang in a college choir and took private lessons, but I always felt like I was wrestling my voice. Now, I don't lose my voice. I transition through my full range with ease. My range expanded and best of all, I'm not faking resonance but using my own, unique resonance. I love it. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!About the product:I was thrown off initially when I was going along with the CD and the exercises were so slow, but it's just what I needed. Slowing down and getting the fundamentals right, singing the range without any tension has allowed me to speed up naturally and sing other styles. If you faithfully practice the exercises and read through the book, this will change your singing world.CD coming soon at richieconway.com

This book is like the owner's manual for the human voice; a reference and guide that should be in every singer's library.I bought this book looking for ways to undo my bad habits which had plagued me for years. I understand what I was doing wrong. In addition the CD that comes with the book has very useful vocalises. (I had never heard of the open mouth hum which helps open things up and makes you feel like everything is in the right place.)I recommend this book for anyone who loves to sing, wants to understand holistically how the body is an instrument, undo bad habits and develop a balanced naturalstamina to sing for a long time. You will be happier for it.

Excellent book for integrating Alexander Technique and singing exercises.

I am a vocalist with long-standing neck and shoulder problems that affected my singing. While I was concerned that there are no AT instructors near where I live, I've made dramatic improvements in just a few days. Very easy to follow, but I had read a couple of AT books prior to this. While one size rarely fits all, Jane Heirich seems to have covered all the bases.

The best book I have found so far on the combination of Bel Canto & Alexander Techniques. A clear and precise book for the beginner to the professional singer, actor, public speaker, etc... Heirich teaches that the voice is a vehicle of human expression; vocal training should not be just about 'beautiful tone' and hitting the high notes, but about the full spectrum of human emotion.Anyone who is interested in the human voice should own this book.

Granddaughter so happy to receive

Going through it slowly but this is exactly what I was looking for!

More than met my expectations !

this book is full of great information, excellent exercises, clearly explained, clearly set out. I have not listened to the CD yet but I am sure it will be of equal quality.
