This one isn't online but it is an excellent book, Raise Your Voice V2. It is written by this guy, https://jaimevendera.com/ (https://jaimevendera.com/). This book has everything in it, including a section written by some guy names James Labrie. If you haven't already bought singing success I would highly recommend it. I use RYV, singing success and mastering your mix.

I'm not necessarily applying this to this thread, but I'm always a bit cautious when it comes to artistic training programs and lessons. I think people underestimate the effect of finding your own way to an art forn in developing your artistic identity.

the Singing Zone.com.  A guy called Per Bristow who has quite an unorthodox vocal coaching method.  Pretty good.

The Zen of Screaming by Melissa Cross is a good dvd.  Don't be put of about the title.  Its not all screaming, its mainly just regular vocal exercises.  If anything it'd give you a bit more power in your voice, which is always good.

Thanks guys. I'm just looking at general stuff. Or stuff geared towards Musical Theater/Classical/Opera/etc.

I would LOVE that SingingSuccess one, but it's waay too expensive for me.

I agree it is quite expensive, honestly I would highly recommend getting Raise Your Voice v2. It is a 450 page book, come with a password to a member's only section. Which includes audio/video downloads and a forum for owner's of the book. I've talked with Jaime on a number of occasion and he's help me out a lot.

One thing to remember though is with singing basics it is all the same.  Proper breath support, placement, tone and passion. You can learn to sing however and whatever you like.

The program Rina is asking about and the one I suggested are learning the best way to increase flexibility, range and power. They are incredibly varied and I have spoke with Jaime Vendera many times he encourages all styles of singing. Now in saying that, he encourages proper non-damaging techniques.
