- BEWARE: THIS CAN DAMAGE YOUR VOICE!
Folks, this is a total rip-off.
The Gary Catona stuff is so TIGHT and FORCED, you could easily damage your voice doing this type of thing everyday improperly. You could give yourelf nodules very easily.
Singing on the "core of the voice" has to be done very carefully, its too advanced, and not for beginners, and is not even explained. VERY DANGEROUS TO YOUR VOICE!
Ron Anderson just gives you some basic classical scales and breathing exercises, with too much manipulation, and tensions, and rigidness. The way he gets you to "round your voice" is just tension, and will make you sound like [...], and spoil your natural voice.
These guys are both total amateurs, and somehow they don't wreck whatever "famous" students they allegedly have.
Bottom line, this DVD is a rip-off.
and folks, if you want to sing, you have to learn how to VOCALLY RELAX, otherwise you are toast.

- Shameless promotion!
That anyone can learn to sing by reading a book or by watching this mis-guided DVD is mistaken. You ALWAYS need a second pair of ears to guide you, and Mr. Catona's idea that it is OK to gag and feel a "tickle" in the throat or pain is just irresponsible. Would you play, walk or run on a sprained ankle, or with any kind of pulled muscle? At least Mr. Anderson talks about breathing and ease of production. Mr Catona's concept of facial tension is just wrong and where is the "O" vowel? A bad idea, sponsored just to make money by Abdul and Jackson.
Buyer and Singer BEWARE!!!

- very bad and without quality
This is very very bad, my teacher told me to use the DVD disc as a frisbee, it would be a better use for this DVD.
So, I have practiced frisbee and I am trying to hit the trash can. :o)

- Huge Disappointment
This product has good intentions, but DON'T be fooled into thinking it is anything special. It was made on a shoe string budget and looks like it was thrown together in a matter of an afternoon. The set includes a DVD of voice lessons, a practice CD (which is really only the audio from the DVD made to fit on a 70min CD...totally a joke) and an embarrassingly bad Karoke CD. The only reason, if you can even find one, to buy this set is for the voice lessons on the DVD. If I were Gary Catona I would be ashamed to have name on this poor product.

- Really bad!!
I am a new student of singing lessons, and I really need something to help my studies at home, but with this DVD I will not learn a thing. |
