Michael Bolton from Rock to Opera with SLS voice technique

Michael Bolton uses Seth Riggs Speech Level Singing Technique. He can do anything he wants with his voice! After working with Seth Riggs for two years on his album "My secret Passion: The Arias", released in 1998, he breaks through rock to opera, especially bel canto, amazingly succesfully! Love this incredible voice!


Michael Bolton in his own words, about Seth Riggs (founder of SLS technique)

"Not long ago, I had the honor of performing with Luciano Pavarotti at a benefit concert in his home town of Modena, Italy. It was, of course, a most inspiring event and caused me to fall eternally in love with opera.

When I returned to the United States, I contacted my great friend and mentor, Seth Riggs, who introduced me to the incredible "bel canto" usage of the voice that I had first heard Pavarotti use in Modena.

Expanding my voice and taking it to new operatic levels has meant a lot of diligent study, but the result has been phenomenally rewarding.

My fans embrace my performances of the arias I have added to my concerts, and I am currently in the process of recording and entire album of classic tenor arias.

Seth's instruction has been invaluable to me-the extended ease and ranges of my voice, and the quality of my opera singing have vastly improved.

I am deeply grateful to him and his New York opera associate, William Schuman, for all they continue to do to help take my voice to the next level".
