Book Reviews of Freeing the Natural Voice

Book Review: A Good Technique for Singers Too
Summary: 5 Stars

The techniques in this book are essential to actors, speakers, and singers alike. I am a classical singer with a Master's degree in voice and many years and varieties of voice teaching, learning and performance experience. Engaging Kirsten Linklater's techniques helped to "fill in the blanks" of my technique, and make vocal production (and breathing for speech and song) freer, less manipulated and more natural. It has proven itself time and again in application with my students of many genres as well. The basis of the Linklater technique in freeing and centering the voice is so simple that it's hard to trust -- but it works. I can imagine the book being difficult to digest without any previous vocal pedagogy and/or Linklater experience however.
