FOR EVERYONE
The voice is our greatest tool of communication and our most powerful means of personal expression. Whether in speaking or singing, our voices project our identities- they are, as it were, intimate, "sound portraits" of who we are. The power of the voice is such that voices either attract people to us or rebel them-and they do so often on unconscious levels. Having an unattractive voice is a great disability, while having a rich, powerful and expressive voice will bring great benefits to every area of your life.


Years of research and experimentation resulted in Gary Catona's voice building system which, he says, is a systematic method of exercising the MUSCLES of the vocal mechanism.

According to Gary, the total focus of voice training should be with the "meticulous building" of the voice muscles to ensure maximum strength and coordination of the voice - breath support (which is, in realty, vocal chord support), power, resonance, range, control and endurance will follow naturally. Additional exercises, such as breathing exercises, from his perspective, is a waste of time and, in fact, could be harmful.

The illustrious history of western singing began over 500 years ago in Italy.
Names like Caccini, Tosi, Porpora, Mancini, Garcia, Vergine and Melocchi are some of the legendary voice teachers that created and passed on the great Italian singing traditions, traditions that still guide and inspire singers today.

This tradition has its most powerful representative today in the Italian-American "maestro" , Gary Catona. His revolutionary Voice Building System has gained worldwide acclaim for its unprecedented results in building voices of all types and styles. Singers as diverse as Andrea Bocelli, Sade, Seal and Liza Minnelli have found that building their voices resulted in significantly greater power, resonance, range, control and endurance.

Not only does Gary's voice building system represent the culmination of all previous voice teaching techniques, but it also goes beyond them in significant ways. As an example, Gary's work has had a powerful impact upon techniques for developing the speaking voice, and is also a badly needed breakthrough in voice rehabilitation. Outside of enhanced resonance, power and endurance in the normal speaking voice, vocal disorders such as hoarseness, nasality, vocal chord paralysis and spasmodic dysphonia ( strangulated voice ) have also been effectively treated by voice building; and remarkably enough, Andrea Bocelli uses the same method to build his operatic voice-- all students, in fact, use the same process -- one uniform voice building method does it all--and the results are always fast and dramatic!

Gary's work has become news worthy worldwide mostly through numerous articles in newspapers, magazines and popular television shows such as Entertainment Tonight, and also through the work of his many celebrity students.
