Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Best of its class
I've been through a number of these vocal courses by book and this is definitely one of the best. He gives you really practical exercises throughout, including very task specific ones like finding middle voice, eliminating particular vocal problems or replicating the expressiveness of song in your speaking voice. I've been through a number of those courses that basically just have you singing "aaah" scales up and down and this is definitely beyond that level.

Rating:  - Out of date information. Be careful with this one
I bought this book second hand. It is full of the sort of out of date information that I sort of expected from the welter of self publication that surrounds it.
There has been an extraordinary amount of voice research published in the last 25 years, and that which does not support the central premisis of this book doesn't surface in the text.
The vocal folds simply do not zip up to provide pitch transitions. I have asked the authors for a reference to stroboscopic evidence ... Read More
Rating: - If I can do it, so can you, and it's so incredibly cool!
I'm 45 and recently decided to pick up my guitar again and start performing solo after a 15 year break. I never was much of a singer - always strained my voice on the few songs I'd sing with the band - but now, going solo, I really needed to start over and learn good vocal technique.
I'm glad I'm not a quitter, because after 4 months of frustrating voice classes, I quit and looked for another perspective. I found Roger Love's book at my city library with the CD for hearing examples of what ... Read More
Rating: - L-O-V-E This Book!
SET YOUR VOICE FREE... is a wonderful book for anyone who wants to learn how to improve their voice. Whether you want to sing or speak better, author Roger Love will show you how to get there.
Ok so you might not become the next Sinatra or Streisand, but the book does explain how your vocal cords make sounds, how to practice, and how to breathe properly. The book never gets too technical or boring, so it's easy to understand.
The book comes with an instructional cd that's over one ... Read More
Rating: - Great book!
This book is one of the best vocal exercise book's I've read. It is very practical and explains everything clearly. Roger Love does a great job of 'demystifying' the voice and how to get it to work for you. The vocal exercise CD that is included is invaluable. If you want a strong middle singing voice, or a great speaking voice, this book is for you.
