A comprehensive instruction manual, full of practical exercises, which starts with overhauling our attitude to our voice.

Based firmly on the author's extensive teaching experience all over the world, and packed full of illustrations and exercises, Singing With Your Own Voice is the book for everyone who has always wanted to sing but has been too scared to try.

Orlanda Cook was a member of the experimental Roy Hart Theatre in London and in France for over twenty years from 1972, after which she worked extensively as a voice coach and director in Sweden, France, Belgium, Hungary, the Middle East and Britain. She died in mid-career just after completing this book.

'Working with Orlanda was full of enjoyment. She created a safe climate around her which helped even the most shy to come forward and find new dimensions in his or her voice' Suzanne Osten, Director, Unga Klara, Stockholm
