Singing is one of the greatest joys of life! As long as there have been people, there have been songs. Now its our turn to join in that chorus of deep human emotion.
Singing for Life equips the reader with the techniques and understanding necessary to move forward as a singer regardless of one’s experience level or current vocal obstacles.
Singing for Life:
- Improves overall vocal health by supplying techniques that will produce more sound, better quality, and without having to resort to the tension and strain that can be a problem.
- Encourages the simple motto “No Strain, More Gain.” Improved vocal health means that singers won’t be singing strong for just a few years. Users will enjoy the benefits of singing their whole life, hence “Singing for Life.”
- Includes a four-month subscription to Rhapsody©, an online music service with access to over 13 million songs.
