Our Customers Say …
"I’m so glad I’ve found Kim Chandler’s “Funky ‘n Fun” vocal warmups and exercises. A lot of thought and care has gone into her innovative approach, and the backing tracks are killer. It means that for rock and pop shows and musicals, the cast can not only work on their breath control, articulation and range, but moreover on their style and musicality. An indispensable tool for me!…"
Elliott Ware (West End Musical Director – “We Will Rock You”, “Rocky Horror”, “Quadrophenia”, “Footloose”, “Rock of Ages”, London, UK)"These exercises are clever and great for all types of singers. They make warm ups interesting, keep singers on their toes, and cover everything from rhythm to intervals, and modal and chromatic harmony . I would use these for students and performers studying any style of singing–particularly classical singers who tend to get in a rut with warm ups. The added bonuses are superb approaches to ear training and improvisation. …"
Dr. Meribeth Dayme (International vocal pedagogue. Author of "Dynamics of the Singing Voice". Founder/Director of CoreSinging™, France )"You’re so good at creating a uniquely practical study tool which also gets people’s days off to a fun start!…"
Lisa Popeil (Celebrity Vocal Coach, Los Angeles, USA)"It is refreshing to find a warm-up CD with such a versatile range of exercises that actually work. I use this CD in conjunction with my own and have had nothing but positive reactions from all my students who have used them. No gimmicks and no magic wands, just good quality exercises that work for singers of all genres. Keep up the good work."
David Laudat (Celebrity Vocal Coach, London, UK)“I ordered all four of your Funky ’n Fun CDs and my students and I are in heaven!!…My husband (who is also my musical director) told me I sounded better than ever the other night at a gig. You are brilliant, and I wanted to take the time to tell you so. Thank you, thank you, thank you!”
Jill Switzer (Professional vocalist/voice coach, Palm Beach, Florida, USA)“I have bought all 4 of your Funky ‘n Fun collection and I must say that they are all awesome! When I was using your CDs every night for about two months consistently, my voice was incredible!! ”
Shena Winchester (Top UK Dance Artist)“Finally a workout series that isn’t based solely on the major scale! I recommend these to my students all the time, especially number 3 which is as challenging for the brain and ear as it is for the voice … ”
Dane Chalfin (Voice Consultant/Vocal Coach/Senior Lecturer in Contemporary Vocal Technique/Director of the British Voice Association, Manchester, UK)“Kim Chandler’s Funky ‘n Fun CDs are an integral part of my lessons. As I don’t play the piano, they are invaluable to me as a vocal coach. My artists enjoy having a beat and easy, calm music to sing along to. Not only are the CDs a great vocal work out in themselves, they are a brilliant tool, easily adaptable for a coach’s own teaching aims. I would be lost without them. ”
Lorna Blackwood (Professional Singer and Vocal Coach, London UK)"I ordered your exercise CD’s some months ago and find them superb. The best I have ever used. I have spent literally hundreds of pounds on CD’s and books over the years but there is nothing close to the excellence of yours. The variety of exercises and the great accompaniment make the CD’s a pleasure to use over and over again. The standard is pitched so well too as the intervals are a stretch for even my most able students…"
Leila Wroe-Johnson (Principal ‘Progressive School of Music‘, Jersey, UK)“It’s GREAT, I love it. You are a great singer. Really nice concept … ”
Michele Weir (International jazz educator, Los Angeles, USA)“As a working vocalist both live and in studio I was very excited to be introduced to Kim Chandler’s Funky ‘n Fun vocal exercise CD’s. It was the first time that any voice exercises actually appealed to me and especially as they are so in line with the style of singing I do – modern pop and jazz. These exercises impressed me so much that I have had no problem recommending them on to up and coming singers who in turn have expressed that Kim’s exercises make perfect sense and ‘feel so good and right’.”
Helena Paul (Singer/Songwriter, Marbella, Spain)"Thanks for creating such great vocal exercise CD’s…they are much more enjoyable than the usual keyboard plodding of many other exercise CD’s I’ve tried."
Corinne Smith (Vocal and performance engineer, Sydney, Australia)“No hocus pocus, simply the tools that a contemporary singer needs. It is the answer for someone who found singing lessons hopeless! Me!"
Elizabeth McGovern (Oscar-nominated Actress and Singer/Songwriter, London, England)"The cd’s are great … I have been using them all the time and the kids love them … and so do I. They are so cool and funky and you’ve covered a lot of ground … well done you!"
Wendy Murray (Performer/Vocal Coach, Brisbane, Australia)"…Analytical enough, yet highly motivating. If there is any such thing as “hip” vocal pedagogy, you got it!"
Bob LeAnder (Professor, Southern Illinois University, Edwardsville, USA)
