Contained in The Contemporary Vocalist Volume 1:
1A)
Breath and Support - Jeannie Deva coaches you through the steps
of four vital exercises that reveal to you the secrets of breath
support and the success of this method.
1B)
Developing Control - The second half of the first CD, apply your
new found method of breath support to vocal exercises. You will
discover that this method gives you greater control and ease of
singing.
2)
Range and Control - Free your vocal range as you relax and energize
the natural and automatic functions of your voice. This CD limbers
your vocal muscles giving you smoothness, flexibility and expansion
of your useable range. For best results, alternate with the first
CD of The Contemporary Vocalist Vol. 2, Tape 1- "Eliminating
the Break".
3)
Tone and Power - This third CD focuses on volume, relaxed power,
enhanced resonance and sustain. The exercises are arranged to warm-up
your voice first and cool you down at end, while being fun, creative
and freeing. CDs 2 and 3 of The Contemporary Vocalist Vol. 2 support
and complete this achievement.
4)
Working with Words - The final tape of this series consolidates
your vocal advancement with correct use of vowels, consonants and
words in general while singing. An understanding of how words affect
your voice will give you freedom from the pit falls of over stressing
consonants.
The
CDs and book are interactive and never leave you wondering what
to do next. Book chapters include, "Natural Breathing, Freeing
Your Natural Voice, Falsetto: Myth-Fear-Fact, How to Sing Hard and
Avoid Vocal Blow -Out, Working on a Song" and much more.
Regardless
of your current level of vocal ability, Jeannie Deva expertly guides
you step-by-step through a process of vocal enhancement and discovery.
She empowers you with the knowledge and tools that help you sing
with confidence and control. Even if you are an experienced singer,
it is recommended that you work with The
Contemporary Vocalist Vol.1 before using The
Contemporary Vocalist Vol. 2. This is because the method by
which the exercises are done is more important than what notes or
scales are sung. The method you use to practice the exercises in
Vol. 2 is taught in Vol. 1 and you will get better results that
way.

ideas for greater expressiveness and versatility? This is a revolutionary
approach to vocal exercising and development! Stylistic riffs and

with right away, before any other, however the riffs can be very

This lady(Jeannie Deva)is a leading vocal trainer.
I sing with a group, and have had many of the common problems such
as inconsistency in the voice, some days note perfect, other days
cracking and straining on the higher notes.
The disc itself is very well explained and easy to follow, the first
half comprising an explanation and run through of each exercise.
The second half being a straight run through the warm up routine.
I recommend this CD and her web site where there are useful articles
on technique which I have found invaluable. These have enabled me
to improve the resonance of my voice and expand my range considerably
with almost immediate effect after correcting poor technique, such
as tongue and throat tension, overblow, using more force and effort
to hit higher notes etc. Beatles songs that were two or three tones
above my natural key are now within my range. Wow!
The exercises on this CD are consistent with many of the exercises
we use warming up for a performance but the full explanation of
why we do each exercise really helps, and these warm ups make a
considerable difference to the quality of performance. These should
be considered warm ups only, and not actually exercises to improve
the voice.
Every singer should have a warm up routine, and this is it.
