"Brett, you make me
sound good!"

"Brett has given me the keys to get the most out of my
voice."

"After continually sucking through my
first two years of singing, I finally
swallowed my pride and bought the Singing Success Program. I improved so
much after only three months that I did a recording of 'You Raise Me Up,'
which got me some attention
from several producers who were interested
in my sound. Singing Success is the best decision I have ever made for my
singing career."
Jesse Nemitz
"For the first
time in my singing career, singing is now as easy as speaking. Thank you Singing
Success and thank you Brett Manning."
Lyndon Barrington Allen
Dove Award Nominee
"Brett possesses a fully
integrated knowledge and systematic approach to developing a healthy, natural
sound, combined with a wonderful artistic sensibility, keen ear and positive
approach. Brett is my first and only voice teacher. Since studying with him I
have added over a half octave to my
voice and feel an easy release throughout my
entire vocal range. I can recommend Brett to professionals at the top of their
game, as well as those taking their first steps to discovering their potential
and everyone in
between."

Mr. Manning,
I'm sure that I don't have to
tell you how incredible your program is. I just
feel like I need to share
something with you, about my recent experience
with it. Again, I have no doubt
that you hear similar stories all of the time, however...
I just purchased your Singing
Success Course three weeks ago. I have had significant vocal damage over the
last two years due to GERD, and had lost approximately four notes from my upper
range, which is the original reason I ordered your program. After listening to
your video and the Introduction CD, I was convinced that your system could help
me. I then began my "therapy" using Lesson One of the technique
sessions. I was only allowing myself to practice 10 minutes a day for the first
week. Then, as I began to feel
better, I began extending the time. I now do two
20 minute sessions a day, with a half hour break in between. I moved on to
Lesson Two yesterday
and then went out to Karaoke with my friends that evening.
I planned to
only sing one song with an easy range.
Well, I ended up singing three
songs with absolutely no pain! Additionally,
my last song was Bridge Over
Troubled Water (the Simon and Garfunkle version). About halfway through it, I
realized that my control over the R&B
licks was effortless! Then, when I got
to the the high part after "Sail on,
Silver girl" I made the jump
without any extra push, whatsoever! And that's
not all!! When it came to the
highest note of the song (my recent limit), I
just knew I would own it, and so I
actually shot up two extra tones, just
for a beat, to really make the moment my
own. My friends were
dumbfounded! All of this with no stress, no strain, less
than half the air,
and most importantly, no pain!!!!
In other words, in just three
weeks with your system, I have achieved the following:
1) Obvious relief and apparent
healing from the scorched vocal cords.
2) A total revamping of my
singing technique (beginning stages)
3) New, easier control over my
vocal "licks"
4) I've regained the vocal
range that I had "lost" over the last two years
While I still have breaks
between my co-ordinations, they have become
much less noticeable and I am
confident that they will fade away as I
continue. I want to thank you from the
bottom of my heart! I believe that
you are a gift to all singers from God
himself!

Dear Brett, I purchased the
Singing Success program and love it. I was
asked to sing a solo at church. After
I sang the solo, people keep asking
me to sing again. Especially my choir
director. This is all thanks to you!

"After 40 years off and
on Broadway and God only knows how many voice teachers, finally a method that
really works. Hallelujah! God bless you
Brett!"
Richard Mathews, NYC
"We love you,
Brett!"
The cast of Elton John's
Broadway smash, "Aida"
"After 17 years of
singing professionally, with several #1 hits, I feel like I've found my voice
only in the last few weeks! Brett Manning's amazing
technique added almost an
octave to my range in one lesson. Instead of straining and only sometimes
reaching high C's I now sail right past high C
to high G with no vocal strain!
Thanks Brett. This feels like magic.
By the way, my children have
used your program for years now and they all have fat bank accounts from singing
studio sessions in some of the nicest studios in Nashville. We are all very
grateful, as you can imagine."
Morgan Cryar
Dove Award Nominee
"It is only on a few rare
occasions during an entire lifetime that one meets
a Master Teacher: one who
truly inspires and permanently changes the
course of a life. Brett Manning is
such an individual."

Hello Brett, I bought your
curriculum about a year ago, ... just to update
you, my band recently released
our first CD, and have gotten very good reviews...We got 2 calls from Word
Records--Otto Price saying he loved it.
I’ll keep you posted. If you want to

This is Joe Pignato from
Central Florida. I'm one of your phone lesson
students from a while back. I'm
just writing to say thank you, thank you,
thank you!!! My voice seems to improve
a little more everyday with your methods. I'm doing things I never thought I
would be able to do!"
Joe Pignato, Orlando, FL
I have been going through your
Singing Success material and have been
able to sing freely much higher than
normal without putting strain on my
voice. I could have kissed your feet when
that happened! My voice went
well above soprano high C, which I haven't been
able to do for years.
When I was young I had an incredible voice and range but I
have been neglecting the gift for years, sad to say. I feel that you have been
placed
in my life for this very purpose...so I can sing beautifully again.
Sandra Pearce, Seattle WA
Dear Brett: I am a vocalist
with a Bachelors and Masters Degree in vocal performance. I have been singing
all of my life and I have been studying
singing for seventeen years.
I have been frustrated because
of what the so-called pedigreed teachers
have been telling me for years, like
"supporting from your diaphragm, bring
the sound forward, lift your soft
pallet". All my singing life I've asked God,
“how is anyone able to
express and feel free in singing with all this.”
As a result, I've had a lot of
vocal issues and have been straining for my
head voice and of course as a
result, I have lost three notes (upper
register). I always knew that there was a
way to unlock my voice but what
always frustrated with the techniques my professors of voice have been
giving
me.
I was never able to feel free
in my performance or with my talent. I prayed
to the Lord and as a result, the
Spirit of God led me to your web site and
your "Singing Success
Program." I got it in the mail and let me tell you this
"OH MY!"
The First lesson exercise I
found my whistle tone and not only that, now I
can sing higher WITHOUT ANY
STRUGGLE OR STRAIN. I 've got my head
voice back and then some. That was all on the first day of
receiving your system.
Keep on with your ministry and
your career. You are helping a lot of singers
and musicians become liberated in
their art. You are truly a gift to all
singers. When I get my Grammy Award, I
will definitely be thanking you. I
am telling all my friends in the biz. May the
Lord Bless and Keep you in all
that you do.

Brett Manning’s Mastering
Vibrato lives up to the expectations established
in his Singing Success program.
Brett has created a 3-CD instructional
product designed to help students
develop, strengthen, and control their vibratos to establish the sound and vocal
quality they seek in a variety of musical genres.
The 3-CD program embodies the
perfect combination of instruction,
modeling, practice, and application. Not
only does Brett explain the
dynamics of vibrato, but he also models the
techniques for enhancing
vibrato and gives his students the opportunity to
practice the exercises he demonstrates. He also gives excellent instructions and
examples intended
to ensure singing success and vibrato mastery.
Pedagogically, Brett’s
Mastering Vibrato program (along with his popular
Singing Success program) is
one of the best vocal instructional programs on the market today. The only thing
better is one-on-one instruction with Brett."

"Brett Manning is by far
one of the most effective and efficient voice
teachers. His intimate
understanding and knowledge of the myriad of vocal demands required of every
level of singer, makes him invaluable to the
creative process. Brett
consistently produces MARKETABLE vocalists of the highest quality, through an
ongoing, healthy involvement with the newest sounds and styles utilized by only
the cutting edge artists. I would
recommend Brett Manning to singers who have
the greatest commitment
to improving their track record."

"It developed my voice
and helped me accomplish my dream."
Deneyse Ellen Varnsdale
Miss Southwest Michigan, 2003
As an already established
recording artist in the Christian music industry, I thought there was more from
my voice that I still wasn’t getting out of it.
Brett Manning helped me find
an extra half octave on the top end of my
range and gave me a deeper, richer
tone with far less effort. He is fast and efficient. He knows how the voice
works and never guesses. I feel that I am singing easier now than I ever have.
Steve Smith, Nashville
I am Matthew from Singapore.
For a long time, I yearned for a reliable, versatile, stable and solid
technique. I had gone through much vocal abuse, confusion and despair over these
years. My voice used to crack very often, I went flat and my diction was
hopeless. But the Lord was gracious and after many months of searching and
praying, I stumbled onto Mr. Manning's web page. I was thinking: "Maybe Mr.
Manning can help someone so vocally hopeless like me."
In my first lesson, Mr.
Manning helped to bridge the chest and head voice
with a few exercises. He
extended my range to a high C. This really amazed
me! I never thought it
possible that I could sing to a high C in REAL voice! I NEVER obtained such
results from any first vocal lesson before!
Mathew Quek, Singapore
"I am so excited... I
can't hide it! It's happened - my larynx stays down and I can sing SPEECH
LEVEL!!!
The instruction in your
program is so precise, yet purposefully relaxing and entertaining. Your
reassurance and even praise is inspiring in those
self-doubtful moments of
"will this work with me?." YES is the answer, with patience and
practice. I would have never realized that I could feel so
strongly about words
like "nay nay nay" and "mum mum mum" and
others... it's just
incredible! I must admit that I was a bit impatient at first,
so I moved rapidly
on to disk 6 and 7. Then I decided that I should go back
to disk 4 and reapply
myself with a slower more focused intent. That's when
speech-level happened for
me! I've been diligent with the exercises... but I realize that the training you
have perfected in this system cannot be
rushed.
I am 57 and have always loved
to sing, but was never trained to sing
correctly. I recently have been singing
along with the self-titled CD from Michael Buble. At first I could not even
approach the high notes without straining... which was AWFUL!!! Now I can match
his EVERY NOTE clearly
and smoothly. Thank you, Brett. I can't wait to see
what's next!"
