Hi Malcolm,

Hi Malcolm,
Ariella, I just wanted to say Thank You for a great vocal instruction lesson on disc. I purchased the first disc on Ebay about 6 weeks ago, and I have to say I’ve progressed more using your lessons than any other I’ve used so far. Your simple, relevent instructions really do work and I can really tell that my range and technique improved! Between the vocal excersizes and the breathing development I can really feel the toning as an athlete would. So, Thank You again and good luck to YOU on all of your endevours, you are an angel.
Hi Jason,
Thank you for your kind words. I really love to hear back from people that are using my CDs. You are on the right track. These vocal exercises done well and built up over time without pushing or straining will strengthen you abilities as a singer. Happy to hear from you!
My dearest Ariella I purchased your series last year, after loosing my voice and my confidence to sing out in front of others. I have recently gained the top notes of my voice back again and although they are still a little wobbly at times my range had increased dramatically and i am singing in front of people again, much to the amazement of friends and family who never knew i could! Thank you for your wonderful program.
Yours Laura
Laura,
You have brightened my day. I made Voice Lessons To GO for people just like you who wanted to sing out. I hope you continue to build confidence in your singing. May I suggest pushing yourself further and going and doing some Karaoke or even taking an improvisational acting class? These are some great thing that can help you peel some more layers off of any public performing anxiety. Keep Singing!- Ariella
Hi Ariella, I just paid for “Your Vocal Assessment: Quick Insight” but I don’t know how to send you my song and my questions. How do I do it? Thanks, Debbie
Hi Debbie,
Thank you for your order. I am looking forward to hearing you sing. You need to send me a link to your voice, an mp3, or perhaps a link to you singing on youtube. Remember to include your questions as well in the email. I will get right back to you with your assessment!- Ariella Vacacrino
Hi Ariella,
Are you in New york and if so how can i get in touch with you?
Hi,
No, I am based in Los Angeles. I teach private lessons and love to listen to and work with new voices. The other option I can offer you is studying with me through my Vocal Assessment program. You send me a link or mp3 of your voice with your questions and I can help you through that means.
Thanks!- Ariella
Last night I downloaded volume 1 on iTunes and I am very excited to fulfill this life-long dream. However, I hope that I don’t have to be standing to practice. I want to train during my commute; I can’t sing at home because I want to surprise my wife with a personal concert for her birthday. Will sitting while I practice hinder my progress?- Hector
Hector,
So glad to hear you are going to be singing for your wife. Standing is optimum for singing but second best is sitting straight and strong in your chair- no slouching.
That is often how choirs rehearse. Good luck with it all!
Ariella
Ariella, I’d like to share how your CDs have motivated and improved my singing. Over the past 18months I’ve purchased each of the 4 in turn. Completing one to a level of competency before moving on to the next. Now I go back and continue the cycle finding new ways to establish a practice routine with your music as the aide. I am waiting for that 5th CD!!! Or better still ‘Specialty CDs’ such as one devoted to my passion … R&B It would be great now that I have the basics to run through some songs from Motown and Stax - focus on the vocal moves between the 1 and 4 which is a bit unusual; and the Runs that you describe in your BLOG. Something to consider — I believe Specialty CDs would sell well. Best regards, ….Gary
Hi Gary,
It is so great to hear back from singers who use my CDs. I think it is great that you have worked your way through all four of my CDs. Thanks for the suggestion regarding a 5th CD. I am working on a couple of new ones right now, once I get those out I will consider other CD ideas and keep your in mind. I dont believe I have ever given you a Vocal Assessment, I would love to hear where your voice is at and answer any particular questions you may have. Good luck!

Hello Beautiful Ariella! I just wanted to send you a quick note to say an enthusiastic “Thank You!” for making a big and beautiful difference in my life!! I have used other vocal warm-ups, and most of them have helped me, but yours have pushed me to a new level of singing! My vibrato, stamina, tone, resonance and breathing have gotten stronger and stronger with regular use of your CDs. I think they’re amazing CDs, they continue to help me, and I recommend them to anyone who asks me about vocal warm-ups. I perform in a band regularly and the compliments I receive since using your CDs (around 8 months now) are along the lines of “your voice is so beautiful, strong and polished”! These are the compliments that I work hard for every day when I practice! I keep getting better as a singer and it’s so exciting to experience myself progressing at the rate I am- I know I have you to thank. My favorite CD is the Stamina CD and the breathing portion of the first CD. When I do these exercises, I can sing for two hours plus! I used to only be able to sing for 30 minutes before I gave out- huge difference! I also appreciate your tips and notes along the way, each time I do your exercises, I feel myself opening up a little deeper into the learning process…my body naturally responds to these exercises and goes a little deeper each time. I am so much more in touch with the importance of the health of my core and my lungs. In short, you have helped my life so much, because singing and songwriting is my greatest passion, and your CDs have made me a much better singer, for the prices of a couple of CDs- it’s incredible. Thank you, thank you, thank you! You are an incredibly intelligent & articulate teacher- I just think the world of you. You are truly the best and I hold you in my heart! A devoted Ariella fan for life, Valerie Suzanne
“Thank you so much for your CD’s! My mother-in-law and I have been pining over them since we got ‘em. Thank you so much for being so willing to share your passion with us. And your way of teaching the lessons is totally absorbing! You’ve definitely had a hand in motivating me to nourish my love of singing more vigorously. I’m even writing down all the little tidbits you give us to remember, like visualizing the notes going in a straight line, and anchoring then stretching down deep for support and high for the resonance of the note. Again, thank you so very much! You’re a gem!”
