Brett Manning is one of the world's most sought after vocal coaches and has become widely recognized for his ability to "see with his ears" exactly what is happening inside a singer's throat. He teaches voice to some of the world's best singers in his Nashville studio, as well as at seminars and workshops nationwide. Brett works with artists from Capitol, Columbia, Atlantic, Interscope, Dreamworks, Lyric Street, MCA, Epic/Sony, KMG, Word, Embassy, Gotee Records, as well as countless independent record labels. He has worked with the casts of various Broadway musicals and is currently coaching the Broadway tour of Elton John's Aida. His client list contains winners of the world’s most prestigious vocal awards, including the Doves, the CMA Awards, and yes, the Grammies. Despite having an incredible five octave range himself, Brett continues to claim "all my students eventually out-sing me!"
Although the majority of Brett’s clientele either sing professionally or aspire to do so, he also enjoys teaching students at every level. As Brett likes to say, "beginning students have the unique opportunity to build their voice free of any bad habits." In fact, it was his love for amateur singers that, after a decade of teaching private lessons, inspired Brett to begin offering vocal seminars and workshops around the nation. As word spread, more and more singers flocked to these workshops where Brett would always demonstrate, in his fun and encouraging way, how even novices can experience immediate improvement in the range, ease, and quality of their voice. Audience participants are awestruck when, often in less than an hour, Brett would add a full octave to their range! It's something you simply must see to believe! (When you get a chance, check out the clips in the Free Stuff section.)
As time went on and Brett Manning’s notoriety grew, he began traveling less and now spends most of his time doing private coaching for professional singers and those aspiring artists fortunate enough to be within easy reach of his Nashville studio. Unwilling to give up on his passion for teaching singers of every type, regardless of their skill level, geographical location, or professional aspirations, Brett Manning needed a new way to make his incredible teaching methods available to everyone. That’s when the Singing Success Program was born. Brett Manning spent the next three years putting together the most complete pre-recorded vocal training course available anywhere based on his revolutionary, and now world famous, techniques.

SINGING SUCCESS™ Philosophy of Learning:
*Have you ever seen the movie Karate Kid? Singing Success uses the same "wax on, wax off" approach to learning. You'll improve steadily by doing simple exercises that retrain your muscles to automatically respond with new coordinations.
* The twelve CDs serve as as the primary instructional tool. The book and video provide visual aids for the sections of the program that require it.
* The best way to use the program is to listen to the CDs in order, referencing the book and video only when instructed.
* Although you may use the CDs in your car, you should only do so after you've already listened to them in your house without any distractions. Practice two to five times a week, as your time and vocal cords allow.
* You will see dramatic improvements in your voice almost immediately. Then, as you progress further in your abilities, your improvements will taper off and become more incremental. View all formats and purchase Singing Success Program online.
