Comprehensive and complete, secrets of singing just has it all. Being a vocal trainer myself, I appreciate the power of this book. Jeffrey Allen succeeds where most vocal teachers fail: explaining how singing is done correctly, how it should feel, and more, how the mysterious processes of making a good sound really work. No abracadabra, just plain english, even my (Dutch) students understand what he's talking about. If you're serious about singing, be serious about buying this book!

Jeffrey Allen's secrets of singing is really the best book describing how you have to sing. It covers all aspects of singing and Jeffrey Allen is the first one I know who is able to explain the even most difficult aspects of singing. Jeffrey Allen explains how you must hold your mouth, what you will feel in your throat, how you must breathe,... His is able to describe the most difficult feelings of singing. In the beginning Jeffrey Allen promises that the book reveals all the secrets of singing, that you will be able to sing after you have read the book ... and his has right. Also the accompagnying CD makes it the reader very easy to understand the secrets of singing. A MUST READ for every singer. After I had read half of the book, and practised the examples on the CD, my voice became full of tone, pure and brilliant, without cracks. My range has extented with almost 5 tones. Don't hesitate, BUY !! Niko Deleu

After practicing the easy to follow methods in the book I noticed a great improvement in my singing. The book comes with Exercise CD's for different voice registers. Good luck finding a copy but it's worth the look.

Mr Allen has an undeniable gift to present vocal concepts in a simple, uncomplicated, clear and concise manner. The methods described, though seemingly simple, bring remarkable results if one is diligent to practise them. Also, they are specially tailored for the male voice. The techniques make singing high notes so much easier, improves one's diction, and enables one to feel a general relaxation of tone and body, thus allowing the performer to express himself more fully.Also, if I may be so bold, his techniques can be utilised for English pop, Musical, Italian arias, German Lieders and even Chinese pop and folk songs. Although I am far from perfect as a vocal student, yet I have been taking vocal exams and do perform whenever there is an opportunity. Mr Allen's methods have helped me tremendously in this respect. I only wish he was my teacher back where I live.

Its a book for profesionals and amateurs alike its easy to read easy to understand from the first page to the last page. Its an absolute must for all singers
