Recommend this for people starting out- definitely not for intermediate of advanced singers. Basic info. Nancy is a great person and I’ve worked with her before. This is designed for those just starting to get their feet wet.

Some of this was a nice refresher from my weekly voice lessons while other bits of it were things I had not heard. This book is designed to be more of a practice book so it is a quick read. I feel like it's a nice reference book but I also think there are other better music books out there.
