To say Donna McElroy is an expert vocal teacher is an understatement! In this marvelous DVD, she works with one of her best students, focusing on  vocal production as a physical process involving the entire body. Breathing, development of muscular strength and control in the diaphragm, chest tone, head tone, vibrato - every conceivable aspect of cultivating a strong and responsive singing voice is covered. Donna's informal, one-on-one approach to teaching reflects her  extensive professional background as a singer and recording artist in the field of pop and jazz, as well as her teaching experience at Berklee College of Music, but her thorough understanding of the voice and her articulate teaching style will be just as valuable to voice students pursuing a classical course of study.
