The Jazz Singer's Handbook: Book & Online Audio

A vocalist dream. This is an excellent book for singers. It explains all the inflections of the voice as an instrument. It also has many jazz standards that a serious jazz singer should know. A great find, highly recommend it. 👍🏽

From the very first page of this book, I knew this was what I was looking for. I teach jazz vocal styles at a university. It is sometimes a challenge trying to express to new students the importance of how to be expressive in singing jazz. This book breaks it down in revealing the many expressions, such as interpreting if the lyrcis are informative, poetic, etc. This book is for the serious jazz vocalist that really would like to learn how to sing, how to express the lyrics, how to become one with the song and how to draw an audience into a world of unforgettable and intimate singing.

This handbook really is the strong Foundation that a jazz singer who's just beginning really needs. This is a well-done source of information. I recommend it for anyone who is beginning or even in the intermediate stages of development the singing jazz.

Came on time for my class. This book is a must for all vocal jazz beginner students. I've been singing for years and this book is really breaking the art of vocal jazz down for me.

New to jazz, I have barely looked at chapter one and already it has improved my singing and made me more confident about tacking a new to me song. Great book for new jazz singers. Hey, more than just jazz! Any kind of singing that allows a little interpretation.

This has book and cd has and will continue to be helpful to me with my vocals and style. I would recommend this product.

this book is so good. I have been singing for years and the exercises are great, plus she gives a lot of good points. This is not a beginners book, but more for the moderate level student.

Easy to read and understand...all the basics one needs to know. The chapter on writing charts and creating basic arrangements is extremely helpful! I am going to use this as a required text for my beginning vocal jazz students.
