5.0 out of 5 stars Miracle worker, 12 Jul 2005
By A Customer
I cant speak highly enough of this book. I've read other voice improvement books with some progress, but not much. I got this book and started listening to the cd. Straight away I realised that this isnt like the others because of the entertaining and refreshing way in which it's presented.
I couldnt carry a tune at all before this. I would never sing, and I had a very dull voice. After reading this book and continuing the exercises (which the book manages to keep you motivated to do), I feel like I can sing pretty much anything! My voice isn't great yet but it improves all the time i'm following the exercises. My speaking voice is much more energetic and interesting too.
People have started to hear me sing now and they're pretty amazed they hadn't heard it before (of course I dont tell them about the book!).

Buy this book. As soon as you find your 'middle voice', your voice will never be the same again!

5.0 out of 5 stars Make yourself heard, 27 Dec 2005
By Kurt Messick "FrKurt Messick" (London, SW1) - See all my reviews
(TOP 10 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
The book 'Set Your Voice Free', by Roger Love, one of most famous and most in-demand vocal coaches in America, is a real godsend to those who rely on their voice for professional purposes (hmmm, why would a preacher need that?). Co-authored by Donna Frasier, this book explores techniques for preserving, strengthening, and extending the vocal power and range of the reader/practitioner.

There is a forward by Dr. Laura Schlessinger--whether or not one agrees with her opinions, one must admit she has vocal presence on the radio. This book will not turn someone into Dr. Laura (in any respect!) but it will help one achieve the voice that each is capable of having, but simply did not gain the instruction to unleash.

Why is speaking important? While this many seem a question with an obvious answer, it is usually an unexamined one. The right voice can make a business presentation or sales pitch more dynamic, and make the difference between closing the deal and walking away empty-handed. The right voice can win the man or woman of your dreams over to a first date. Even if you just want to sound better on your answering machine, this is book that will help.

Think you can't carry a tune in a bucket, and that this is because you don't have musical training? Guess again. With simple exercises in this book, you will be singing along in no time with much less self-consciousness and more self-confidence, which in-and-of itself can make a difference in how you sound.

It comes with an instructional CD with vocal exercises to follow. From simple breathing exercises (yes, there is a right way to breathe) to more specific practice routine, you will have material to follow to help you unlock the hidden potential of your voice. The sound you make will be richer, more fully rounded and developed.

Roger Love includes extra helps for those who are primarily interested in singing (such a vibrato, riffs, and even stage presence), and those who are more interested in speaking (such as pacing, varying the tone, volume, even what to do with your hands).

The final chapter takes on aspects of the healing power of the voice. Remember how wonderful you felt when, as a child, your mother would read softly or sing to you, how the sound of her voice alone was a great healing comfort? There is a reason for this, not simply due to the emotional bond with mother. The voice can reach parts of the brain that the language itself cannot reach. Learn to tap into that.

Make a joyous sound! Read this book, and set your voice free!

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this book and CD, 27 Mar 2007
Perfect for strengthening those vocal cords whether you want to simply sing beautifully or just speak professionally. Out of all the guides I use this is one I can keep referring back to. The techniques, instructions, explanations and exercises in the book and on the CD are refreshingly easy to follow and understand. The CD can be used on it's own. I've fed the CD in to itunes, converted the exercises to MP3 and can now take them everywhere with me. This is simply like have Roger Love as your personal vocal coach as he demonstrates the correct and the incorrect 'noises' you should or should not be making.
