Remarkable, everything [Striny] write[s] on the Head Voice is interesting and good. -- Christa Ludwig, international opera legend Striny has been my teacher for over fourteen years, and his incredible teaching has been invaluable in my success performing roles from the bel canto to Berio. -- Lauren Flanigan, The thinking man's diva, Newsweek Always engaging, clearly expressed, and well-phrased -- a reader wants to read on. You have much to be proud of. -- Peter G. Davis, music critic, New York Magazine Passionate and direct. Vocal students and teachers will have much to chew on, and even part-time opera fans will find food for thought. -- Joseph Dalton * Albany Times Union * Striny neatly encapsulates his directives for singing in three short pages of exercises...The exercises, and Striny's directions, are excellent. -- Debra Greschner * Journal of Singing * WOW! I must say that you have done a fabulous job...A great piece of work. -- Birgit Nilsson, international opera legend I am so excited by the principles that Mr. Striny puts forth in his book...that I have incorporated them into my own teaching and recommend his book to everyone. -- Carmen Balthrop, chair, voice/opera division, University of Maryland I am impressed with the clarity of his thoughts and the wisdom of his ideas. His book is an important addition to the field of vocal pedagogy, and it is especially timely today when the art of good singing is limited to so few people... -- Michael Cordovana, Dallas Opera, retired
