		<description>Dear Saam,
Thank you for you comment!  First of all, you need a good teacher.  Whether you sing opera, pop, or musical you need to have a good singing technique.  In what area do you live?  I might know a good teacher where you are.  You need to work on resonance, support of the voice, expression, diction, etc.  A good teacher will help you.  Have you taken any lessons?  If not, get started.  A good teacher will guide you and support you in your endeavors.  Do you parents support your singing career?  That is important that you have encouragement.
Keep that dream and work hard!  Determination and hard work will help you to succeed!  Hope to hear from you again!

		<description>I must confess that I appreciate your good work, support and encouragement to singers. Keep up the good work! The Lord is your strength.

I have a question for you and the question is this: Can I get a note for singers (especially biginers)? If yes, kindly send it to my email address.

I would really appreciate if you could help me. 

Thanks in anticipation.</description>

		<description>Rach,
Tell me more about yourself.  
24 is definitely not too late if you have already had some lessons and musical instruction. Can you read music? Tell me what you have done so far and what kind of a music career as singer you would strive for?  Opera, musical or pop.  Are you soprano or alto?  Are you living in the States? 
With the answers to some of these questions and hearing you sing (if possible) I can them give you some advice as how to proceed.</description>

		<description>Lieber Erwin, ich habe mich über Deine Worte außerordentlich gefreut und danke Dir sehr!  Daß ich einen Fan wie Dich habe, bedeutet mir viel!  Es ist mein Ziel, die Herzen der Menschen, die mir zuhören, zu berühren, und wenn ich Dir ein paar Stunden Schönheit beschenkt habe, dann habe ich dieses Ziel erreicht.</description>

		<description>Liebe Frau Roberts, mein Kompliment für diese großartig gestaltete neue Website! Als großer Fan von Ihnen bin ich begeistert, die vielen Fotos aus Aufführungen zu sehen (von denen ich einige ja miterleben durfte) und Texte lesen zu können, die Sie selbst geschrieben haben. Ich habe Ihre Karriere von Beginn an verfolgt und bin glücklich, dass ich Ihrer einzigartigen, unverkennbaren Stimme seit Ihrem Engagement in Saarbrücken immer wieder einmal bei Aufführungen und Konzerten (zuletzt 2007 in Worms) lauschen durfte. Keine andere Opernsängerin fasziniert mich so wie Sie und ich freue mich schon auf ein hoffentlich baldiges Wiedersehen und -hören! Liebe Grüße und alles Gute für Ihre weitere Karriere!
