 Better Than Expected November 9, 2008
These vocal exercises are very inexpensive to download and have made an improvement in my voice in a very short time. I've tried many of the programs on the market and this little CD has actually been more helpful than many of the bigger programs I've invested in. As a guy who tends get his voice caught up in his throat...these exercises have a tendency to bring the sound into the mask of the face while relieving the tension in the muscles surrounding the throat. This CD really helps ease my voice while, at the same time, gives it a pleasant resonance and/or ring.
The only downfall to these CD's are that the instructions are very short and I think it would be nice to be able to spend more uninterrupted time working on the examples. There is a very short explanation and then it takes you through the exercise very quickly. Instead of a minutes worth of time on each exercise...I think it would be helpful to have fewer exercises and give them more detail, depth, and time for practicing.
This is NOT a comprehensive program but I gave it five stars because the exercises, if practiced properly, REALLY do improve your voice. There are many programs on the market that cost more and will never make you a better singer. For the price of the MP3 download version...this is an absolute steal!!!
Perfect for me! November 2, 2008

I am happier than I can say with this program. This is the first thing I have bought on CD to work with my voice and the thing I love BEST is that it is not talky---you start doing the exercises and she keeps you moving thorugh them FAST. I LOVE THAT. Afterall, this is a CD you will work with a thousand times and you don't want to hear little stories over and over. There's none of that---you work on your voice steadily.
The only thing I think she should consider is telling people what to do next. I bought the mp3 download which was awesome---one click and I had it! But when the execises end, there is no direction about what should come next. I know she has other CD's and I read here in the reviews that you can use them together. At first, I thought, I guess I better use #1 for a month or so before I move on. Apparently that is not true, but I'm still not clear.
I noticed someone gave her a 3 for talking over the exercises. I thought that was totally unfair; I will stop and wait for her to come in and clarify when I am confused. About half way thorugh an exercise she will join in and I wait for those join ins to hear her and make sure I am doing it the way she wants. I really think that part is very, very valuable!!! Valerie, if you read this, don't stop doing that.
I use this in my car on the way to and from the gym and I have started doing more through out the day---I am really excited to find a program like this. It greatly exceeded my expectations!
Very helpful October 17, 2008
And simple too. Ariella makes it easy to strengthen your voice and breathing. I just started but I can see a difference already;-)
 plug and play August 29, 2008
This is a good, basic warm-up set. It's great having it on CD to keep me focused to get the basics done. I move on from there. Four stars are because I get slightly irritated by her singing and playing when things speed up. I wish she wouldn't sing along, nor play all the notes. I tend to turn it off and do those myself. It's good to practice with your metronome anyway, and away from the CDs so you can really hear yourself and pay attention to your pitch as well. Great for traveling.
Amazing Breathing Exercises! Helpful Vocal Exercises July 24, 2008
I am a beginner, but my voice has already improved from practicing using this CD along as reading and practicing with other books such as: Singing for Dummies, Singing Coach Unlimited, free videos at expert village, etc.
If you're the kind of learner who learns from books, and DVD's and CD's etc. then this is a very good choice. One to add to your arsenal of learning how to sing. (I am looking around for a good vocal coach, and when I actually find one who can teach me and practice me with something other than what I've already learned then I'll work with one.)
Oh, and I'm checking out Roger Burnley's EZ Vocal Method, we'll see how that works. Good luck and best with your singing!
***I just had to add this: after using the breathing exercises in this CD one time (I'll be using it everyday for sure!) well, the range of my voice dramatically improved. The squeeky sound that comes when going from chest voice (lower notes) to head voice (higher notes) have disappeared. Wow, amazing, I'm so very grateful I can now reach the high notes easily, comfortably, effortlessly (like she said, if there's any discomfort, then you're doing it wrong). Thanks sooo much!
BTW, you can get this CD as an mp3 download here at Amazon, no waiting, no postage, easy at half the price too.
