Striny''s previous book, Head First, discussed this process but without specific instructions to accomplish the task. This completely original process was conceived by Striny to correct major problems in his voice that had been caused by two separate voice teachers. The content of the process and the suggested duration of time duplicate exactly what his self-study called for in both cases.  Readers will feel in tune with a philosophy generated through this endeavor, which cements self-confidence and self-esteem with the attained accomplishments. It permits you to do your tasks without overt manipulation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRemarkable, everything [Striny] write[s] on the Head Voice is interesting and good. -- Christa Ludwig, international opera legend\u003cbr\u003eStriny has been my teacher for over fourteen years, and his incredible teaching has been invaluable in my success performing roles from the bel canto to Berio. -- Lauren Flanigan, The thinking man's diva, Newsweek\u003cbr\u003eAlways engaging, clearly expressed, and well-phrased —- a reader wants to read on.
