About the book

It is one of the best collection I have ever owned. Provides an indepth explanation about Caruso's vocal tenchnique and how he practices them. Exercise scales are even provided to guide you to the singer you wished to be. I have started the scales for practice and believe me when I say this - it's not easy - especially for starters. Overall, the book's great. The content is great - and no doubt about it, it was written by one of the many great authors/singers around.

good to know

I thought the book is great - for everybody who wonders how to learn how Caruso succeeded in getting is throat so relaxed and his voice so perfectly soft - here is the book to at least catch a glimpse. Don't expect to "learn" singing from this book - but be happy to at least get an idea why most of the singers today sing so much worse than the singers in Carusos age (not to say Caruso himself). Fucito has actually helped Caruso studying - so he knows what Caruso actually did - forget the book from Marafioti...
