Eric Frey is a successful singing coach who has put together
this program that covers his method of vocal training so that people who
are studying at home can benefit from his methods.
His underlying philosophy is to "release" the voice so that
it becomes natural and unforced. He focusses on techniques to help you sing
as naturally as you speak - a bit like "speech level singing".
I haven't done this course yet but from what I've seen and
read it is best suited for someone who already has some voice training behind
them
and
wants to "step up" to the next level. Or someone who has reached
some kind of blockage in their vocal progress. The techniques he teaches
should help
you to break out of any bad habits that have developed, and to "free
up"
the vocal apparatus so that your voice isn't constricted or forced.
Vocal Release consists of a 347 page Manual and 7 CDs with
an 8 week course of tutorials and exercises.
The course also includes a couple of "freebies" -
a song writing guide and a rhyming guide to help with those lyrics! Eric
Frey also offers to listen to any audio files you send him and give you personal
feedback on your singing.
I see he's now offering 17 guarantees :) including a 60
day money-back guarantee. Obviously with the variety of singing courses on
offer it's pretty competitive. I think this one is probably better suited
for someone more advanced - if you're a beginner you'd be better to go for
something like Singorama.
