REVIEWS FROM AROUND THE WORLD
"I really enjoy what I get to hear one of your workshops & seminars too! It's always great to see how you can transform any vocalist from "okay" to "amazing" in such a short period of time." Jimi - SongNet.org
"Thank you, Liz! Your book is an amazing guide for me and has helped me monitor my voice so efficiently!"
Meryll Jean Locquiao, professional singer
"I have been singing a lot with your book and sometimes my voice feels a little bit less of energy thru the therapy, but there is times, my voice is so so powerful, even more powerful than before and a big part is the fighter spirit combined with your excercises. I have booked 2 paid gigs in germany, none of those I need to promote myself, this is amazing and I am being featured on a major european online platform, as big as comcast or dslextreme. Thanks for your inspiration." Sandra, Los Angeles/Munich - July, 2007
I just wanted to reiterate that we loved having you in Houston, and it wasn't nearly enough time. Every time we see you, it's just not enough. You are so very generous in sharing with other singers, and knowing you has changed our lives. The people who attended the workshop were just thrilled with your work. We got so much positive feedback. And they are begging for more. I think we will have a very good attendance if you are able to come and do the 2 day format. -Donna Hinds Sawyer, March 2007
"You taught me how to find my own voice and gave me confidence to write my own songs.”
-Mia Sable, Recording artist on ITunes, December, 2006
”Your work is absolutely amazing! I just used the little five-note exercise (the one we started with) to get the vocal folds working with a student today. A dear student who's had serious problems with range, very breathy, wants so much to sing. She wanted to do "Astonishing" but the highest notes were all air. Well, after a bit of exploring with sounds and using that exercise she sang, solid sound, the whole song. It was unbelievable. She was thrilled and I was astonished!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
-Dr. Joan Melton, Head of the Department of Theatre and Dance, Cal State University, Fullerton

- Kathleen Smith - Singer/songwriter
Dear Liz, About a month ago i took an audition for my school musical, "When in Rome." I didn't care whether I would get a part or not but i was amazed at my courage and confidence that i had never seen in myself before! I just went in and sang and wasn't afraid at all like before. I remember every year going to my audition unbelievably nervous, you could barely hear me sing and it was shaky and awful. But not anymore, and i owe it all to you. It turns out I did get a part, I am Julia, with singing and ALOT of lines, which i am memorizing now over break. It means alot to me because this is something i've always wanted and you helped me get it. I do practice and listen to my tapes and i think of the good times we had and i just can't help but smile! -Jenny DeMain, age 12
“I always wanted to thank you for providing me with the skills for teaching that have helped me survive along the way! I have learned much from every teacher I have worked with, but I learned so much from you about teaching and how to be a good teacher as well as singer. Just wanted you to know you were appreciated!” -Tricia Grey - June 2005
