Comprehensive voice reference manual

How did it take me until now to buy this book? Having had the pleasure of being trained by Cicely in 1962 and been in the RSC in the 60's while she was the Voice Director I have always respected and admired her depth of knowledge and understanding of the voice and how to make your voice clear and powerful. This is a technical reference manual for voice trainers, actors and those who want a deep and thorough knowledge of projection and making your voice live. It was great to find out where to buy bone props to train your lips and tongue, and a depth of knowledge about the challenges of their use and how to surmount them. The reasons behind the exercises are all explained in a clear and concise way. This book is a gem.
