This eTipbook Lite offers you a free 90-page preview of eTipbook Vocals, a highly accessible 246-page guide to the singing voice. eTipbook Vocals helps you to understand and extend the possibilities of your most personal instrument, and to appreciate and evaluate input from voice teachers and coaches. An essential tool for beginners, a source of inspiration for advanced singers in any style, from classical to rap and jazz – really!

The best guide to your instrument
eTipbook Vocals brings you the combined knowledge and expertise of some twenty singers, voice teachers, and other experts. They introduce you to singing in tune, breathing techniques, singing loudly without hurting your voice, and a host of other subjects. The book also sheds a light on various singing methods, it explains the concept of registers (and why some experts reject that very concept), and provides dozens of handy tips on voice care, memorizing lyrics, and pronunciation.

Audio and video Tipcodes
Non-classical singers will appreciate the chapter on microphone selection and technique, while a chapter on reducing stage fright will be helpful for singers in all styles, at all levels. The glossary turns the book into a handy reference guide, and our unique Tipcodes and direct YouTube links even let you hear what you're reading about!
