What Ever Happened to Great Singing?: It's Time For: A Real Change! Real Answers! Real Technique! Real Truth!

The world is stuck in 'Idol Worship'. What would have been totally unacceptable vocal performance 30 years ago is norm today. The real voices are lost under a heap of institutionalized wrong technique which is being taught and perpetrated. Voice teachers and Vocal Coaches. Speech pathologists, Ear Nose and Throat Specialists are harming our instruments. The teaching techniques out there are destroying voices after a short bloom – the combination of jet age mentality, bad management and vocal ignorance rob the world of the Vocal Greatness. Where are the great voices of today? What happened to singers being household words based upon their voices rather than their scandal sheets? Who is demanding that Truth be told and great singing be once again instituted – I am! -After almost 30 years of fixing vocal ‘garbage’, left behind by teachers from all over the world, I have the right to stand up and refuse for this to go on any longer. Maria Callas, the greatest soprano in the history of opera, finished her career at 40. No one could help her put back the glory of her instrument - does that tell you something? She had lots of money and ‘friends’ when she was on top, when she lost her voice, she was alone. Caruso, the greatest Tenor of all time had vocal secrets which were not written in any of his personal accounts or published biographies that I encountered. -I found truth and the vindication of my own work in an obscure article written in a Metropolitan Opera Magazine in 1975, accompanying a Caruso Record Collection. I have been teaching this secret without knowing it for many years, now I share it with the world! This book is as much an expose’ of correspondence between me and institutions as it is a testimonials by people who have saved their voices by using this teaching. I am angry at the destruction perpetrated by people who are looking for a “buck” instead of understanding what is really going on. I am fed up at watching voices being ‘struck out’ instead of being cultivated, I challenge the system. Bring me a voice that you cannot fix. I will tell you why you can’t fix it and ‘reconstruct’ it myself!!! The Voice and I are in pursuit of setting the record straight and at the risk of opening a can of worms, I am intent on creating a new standard of Truth and Excellence in teaching and of course singing. What I teach, how I teach, where this teaching comes from and what it ultimately achieves, is based upon a deep level of knowledge which sources in time of Second Temple. I bare the truth to the technical secrets of the voices and which for some inexplicable reason have been imparted onto me. I am here to share that which works at any age or stage of vocal deterioration and results in a healthy instrument producing extraordinary sound… I wrote this book to break down the myths and return to a sensible approach which makes the system work for you instead of destroy you. Why has no one ‘what matters’ listened in the past? Good question - perhaps the published correspondence will provide an answer. To me basic answer is : It is too easy and so natural .Ultimately it really does not make a great deal of money. Surgeries and Botox injections ( you read right) are much more profitable. One thing is for certain – the time has come to have this information reach the world. This is not only for singers, but parents whose children who are suffering from vocal stress at early ages and are sent to their speech pathologists in grammar school with little tangible results; tone deaf people who think they are, but really are not –– speech pathologists, ENT’s, vocal coaches and so called voice specialists who have degrees from the most prestigious universities and medical schools and can’t do anything else but operate… in short, anyone who uses his Voice needs this information and that includes us all. Here are concrete answers to complex questions which work with and for the body and not against it. The goal here is : To speak
