"The writing in this book was excellent and kept the user engaged. Everything in mechanics and organization is perfect. The illustrations married the content extremely well. This book is amazing."
As singers, we put our art out into the world for joy, the joy we can bring to others and in turn bring to ourselves. The unfortunate fact is that sometimes, our art can go unnoticed and unappreciated. But we pick ourselves up and forge ahead, knowing that this path of ours is true. And then, sometimes, the path and the hard work intersect to bring us to a shining moment.
New York Vocal Coaching is thrilled to share such a moment with you today! Our company Founder and President, Justin Stoney, has once again achieved musical glory! Mr. Stoney’s written masterpiece Sing Link Never Before just received the highest honor of Gold in the 33rd annual IBPA Benjamin Franklin Award. The book was entered into the Education category and received nothing but glowing reviews. Here is a small sample of the kind words shared about Sing Like Never Before.
