Lester reminds and enlightens!

What did John Lester know and teach about the voice that provided so many of his students with the opportunity to enjoy long careers on the international opera stage? What did they learn from him that allowed them the opportunity to stand on the stage with the world's best singers? Those secrets are shared in the upcoming book: John Lester: Great Secrets for Singing by Gary Funk and Robert Hoyem.

The book is a testimonial to a most remarkable teacher who, as he approached the end of his life, wanted to share his philosophy in book form so that others may pass on what Lester learned from European master voice teachers such as Jean de Reszke, Mario Sammarco, Michael Raucheisen and others. Lester reminds and enlightens singers and voice teachers about the very basic principles that must govern healthy, beautiful singing.
