Voice Training Retreat in Costa Rica - JUNE 5-11, 2024

With Renown Vocalist, Alan Razzak

Voice is a  direct expression of our personality.  This workshop is based on the Melocchi technique used by opera singers in Italy (De Monaco, Corelli, Giacomini, Martinucci, etc. )  The aim is to activate the muscles that control the vocal chords y executing precise and simple vocal exercises.  This technique is not only very useful for professional singers, but also for actors and public speakers because it prevents the voice from getting tired during and after the performance and keeps the vocal chords in optimal shape.  

Vocal restrictions are directly reflected on our personality and therefore they determine our life quality.  Participants are reminded of how the natural voice sounds like without the influence of rational conditioning related to our programming known as education that begins with the first words spoken.  

We are experiencing the sound produced by our own vocal apparatus as personal authentic voice.  When activated it dissolves psychosomatic blockages, brings subconscious mechanisms to the conscious surface and balances heart-mind connection.  Fundament of this method is the optimal breathing technique. 


The VOX VERE Vocal Development Method is applicable regardless of age, experience or education.  

Extraordinary results were achieved in educating space holders and the participants in vocally demanding ritual singing based on Yawanawa tribal chants originating from the Brazilian indigenous people.

“I’ve been taking singing lessons for years. But it was during those hours [with Alan] that I really started singing. It was wonderful to see how a teacher can turn everything around after so many years of singing experience and help you shed old habits.”E
