The living instrument that produces the sound is totally out of sight and cannot be heard accurately by the very singer who is performing the song. The ideas and instructions presented here are not meant to replace other methods of teaching voice but are intended, instead, to be an added help.Most people respond readily to graphic images. This book seeks to employ graphic images to aid in learning a difficult art with a difficult instrument.
