APPELL Voice Studio
I'm the author of the book, Can You Sing a HIGH C Without Straining? I've trained more than 4,000 singers how to extend their range and specialize in unlocking the mystery of singing high notes for every student. Trading with me, singers learn how breathe for singing, how to control tone, how to develop vibrato and how to develop their own original style.
Your first vocal technique lesson at APPELL VOICE STUDIO is FREE if you come to the studio. It will be approximately 45 minutes long. For the first 15 minutes Thomas will be sharing with you some great information about how your voice works from the first few chapters of his book, Can You Sing a HIGH C Without Straining? He’ll explain how high notes are produced and why anyone with a healthy voice can extend their range.
INTENSIVE TRAINING is available for singers who need to advance quickly. The first 12 hours of training is called the Fundamentals Series. The best way to take these lessons is 2 hours per day in 6 consecutive days. If you do this, immersing yourself in supervised training, the results are far more effective than taking one lesson per week, practicing in between, then coming back for your next lesson a week later. Not that the lesson/practice in between/lesson format doesn’t work – 100% supervised practice is better.
Singers advance more from coaching than personal practice. I advocate personal practice in between sessions and as much supervised training as you can afford. If you want the fastest results, with the most complete understanding of your voice, daily supervised training is the way to go.
TRAIN FROM ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. Skype lessons are now (thanks to technology) almost as good as an in-studio lesson for vocal technique. The audio quality is superb. Skype lessons in China are as crystal clear as lessons in California. All sessions are recorded to an audio CD in my studio which are converted to mp3 files and sent to you immediately after the lesson using Skype's free send file function. You can be practicing with your lesson exercises immediately after the lesson.
HOW DO I KNOW THIS WORKS? Easy, just read or watch any of the testimonials at the website. Also, listening to some of the singers I've trained using by clicking on the Audio Examples page or Video Examples page is a great way to see the results for yourself. Or listen to a male singer I trained singing a soprano HIGH C in full voice (not falsetto) in the sidebar Audio Examples. Or listen to 8 year old Sam Santiago sing Rolling In the Deep if you have any questions about how this works with kids.
