Description: This is the ultimate self-help performance manual for all singers, designed to teach them how to experience elite performance at their level. Consistently competent performances do not depend solely upon superior vocal skills, nor are they a matter of luck. On the contrary, mental attitude and performing skills are factors so powerful that they can actually make a greater difference in a singer's results than technical know-how.

The mental skills outlined in this book are the easily learned key to maximizing performance. They will help singers to use what they have, to enjoy their voices during performance, and to perform consistently to the best of their present ability. All singers can improve their performance by using the techniques set forth in Power Performance for Singers - even those naturally gifted with performing flair, and those who have learned how to cope in performance through much experience.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 313-316) and index.
