Singorama Product Review

By Melodee Formosa

Just like death and taxes, music is also one of the many constants in our life. Another common thing about death, taxes and music is that they are all tricky matters. For a long time, the music industry along with it's artists, musicians and singers were exalted to an ideal perfection that almost everyone wants to be part of the world they are living in.

Truth is, there is more to music than the money-making vehicle image being painted by the media. Music is a universal language. It knows no boundaries and race, only heart and stories raring to be expressed and heard. Ever wonder why children are exposed to music at an early age? It is because it helps brain development. Not only that, social and emotional skills are honed.

Due to lack of funding, music classes are being taken out of school curriculum across America. But to those who really are passionate to learn and make music, self-study is the next resort. Good thing is that you can get lessons from great vocal teachers. Best thing is that you can actually learn how to sing from home with singing book guides and software.

One of the best singing guides that you can find out there is "Singorama." It claims to be able to help you learn how to sing like a professional singer. Singorama has a two-part program. A beginner's book and advanced book. It also comes with a "Singorama Mini Recording Studio" that trains the users musical ears, as well as helps the users with the exercises. You also get to receive a bonus access to an e-book called "The Ultimate Guide To Reading Music."

The beginner's book reminds me so much of my classes from my youth. Your musical journey will of course, begin with defining singing and its history. Next on the agenda will be the study of how sound is manufactured and how the parts of your "voice machine" affect its quality. This might come across as boring and unnecessary but I think that the writer, Emily Mander, stresses the importance of learning the science behind the art, which brings us to the first good point of this program. The approach used by "Singorama!" is beneficial to those who want to take singing seriously for it will give you a better understanding of your voice mechanism.

You are taught the fundamentals of music. You are taught to recognize your own voice and range. You are taught the difference between tone and pitch. You are taught the concepts of music, the jargon of music. These are all lessons that will be the building blocks of your future singing ability. Therefore, it is a must to be covered and it is impressive that they did.

The program of Singorama doesn't just talk about the theory. All the lessons and step-by-step instruction to do a particular vocal exercise is followed up by sample audio tools that you can listen to. This, definitely, will give the user a better understanding of the all the lessons. Because they're not only provided with theories and "how to do" the vocal exercises manual, they can actually compare their voice with the sample audio tools, which gives them capability to find out if they're doing the exercises correctly.

Not only that, Singorama also provides the user a Virtual Piano, to figure out notes and hone singing techniques, and a Mini Recording Studio to review all the efforts.

The third good point of the "Singorama!" is its teaching style. The manner it was written makes the commitment to music so much more bearable. You would actually think that you are under the wing of a great voice teacher, who is knowledgeable and effective. The language used in the books series is easy to understand. Although there were some musical jargon, they were all been explained and discussed methodically and reviewed at the end of every chapter. Some questions you will probably raise if it were a live class have been anticipated and answered in the entire series.

Singing has too many details that may cause boredom to some. This is the only drawback of this program. It has details that may not be necessary for those people who sees singing as a mere talent to hone. However, if you are a person who wants to make a career out of your singing, you better stick to this program. This will give you deep analysis of singing and honing your singing voice.

The fact that Singorama is jam-packed with theories and technicalities of singing, it is what gives your money's worth. So, Singorama is such a good deal. According to Emily Mander, the book is ultimately about you, your singing and your musical future. That adage is true. It will help you find your own singing voice, develop your singing range and keep your own style of singing.
