How to Sing
Lilli Lehmann
Book Overview:
Lilli Lehmann, born Elisabeth Maria Lehmann, was a German operatic soprano of phenomenal versatility. She was also a voice teacher.
Much of Lilli Lehmann's advice is complex and demanding - the standards which she set for herself were beyond the highest aspirations of most professional singers. However, there is still much in this book that is enlightening to all those who are interested in using their voice to best advantage, both in song and the spoken word.

Learning and teaching to hear is the first task of both pupil and teacher. One is impossible without the other. It is the most difficult as well as the most grateful task, and it is the only way to reach perfection.
Even if the pupil unconsciously should produce a flawless tone, it is the teacher's duty to acquaint him clearly with the causes of it. It is not enough to sing well; one must also know how one does it. The teacher must tell the pupil constantly, making h. . . Read More

Strange, insistent and full of colorful language
This book is highly technical, and would probably be incomprehensible to a beginner. It is better for perusal by a seasoned student.
El principio esta increíble. Después se vuelve un poco repetitivo. Los diagramas ayudan mucho. También algunos conceptos.
It's a wonderful book for singers who like to improve their technique. All exercises are excellent and useful. I highly recommend for all singers to read it. This writing, by one of the greatest singers, ever, will enable you to understand and learn all the aspects of what are not only the mechanics
As a beginning singer who is trying to learn the proper sensations and coordinations for singing, I found this book to be both extremely helpful and a little intimidating. That's sort of how the whole learning process has been, though, so it didn't take away from my enjoyment of the book. Being that
A very good reference for those who are looking for breathing techniques. I found the diagrams very helpful where prose was too dense to handle.
Excellent book - a must-read for any student of voice. With insightful statements from a legend of the operatic stage, and a nearly all-encompassing technical manual, "How to Sing" is the Bible of many vocal studios and teachers.
