In The Press
“Chloë’s subtle voice work opens the heart. She is a spectacular
genius of this teaching art. She is at the core of a fascinating
phenomenon that is allowing individuals to find their truth and
freedom through the creative process of voice and sound.”
—Coleman Barks, author of Rumi: Soul Fury
“Chloë has perfected a unique and empowering vocal technique
accessible to everyone. In all my research with nonviolent and
creative communication skills, I have never experienced this ability
to effortlessly generate such a range and depth of human feeling and
expression with such spontaneity, courage, and compassion. Chloë is
dedicated to recovering the wisdom of the human spirit, in a way that
is profound and unique for our times.”
—Scilla Elworthy, PhD, Niwano Peace Prize Winner and Nobel
Peace Prize nominee, author of Pioneering the Possible
“Chloë Goodchild has a voice of mesmerizing purity. She possesses one
of the freest spirits I have seen on stage.”
—Juliet Stevenson, actor
“Chloë Goodchild’s teaching has opened up my true voice for
theatre.”
—Jerry Hall, actor and model
“Chloë Goodchild has written
a book that is a major contribution to our understanding of the power
of sound and music. From her personal experiences as a singer to the
many decades she has worked to empower people through their voices,
she has discovered the deep truths inherent in coming into our true,
authentic voice and nurturing our souls. This book is a must-read for
sound healers, music therapists, physicians, and therapists. It is an
astonishing accomplishment.”
—Barbara J. Crowe, board-certified music therapist, Arizona
State University director of music therapy, and author of Music and
Soulmaking: Toward a New Theory of Music Therapy
“Chloë’s work is
joyful and a source of liberation. Singing with Chloë is a way of
returning to original mind. She shows us how to find our authentic
voice. It is the voice we need to sing out from and save this
dazzlingly beautiful world.”
—China Galland, author of The Bond between Women and
Love Cemetery
“Chloë Goodchild’s clarity of tone—both in her music and in her
book—penetrates to the bone. I revel in both her songs and words,
especially when she surrenders to the mystery of devotion. In the West
we usually shy away from pure devotion, often for legitimate reasons.
But Chloë evokes the open, trembling, courageous heart of devotion
that more deeply invites us into the danger of living. I celebrate and
recommend her work.”
—Gangaji, spiritual teacher and author of Hidden Treasure:
Uncovering the Truth in Your Life Story
“Chloë Goodchild’s music is a new force for peace.”
—Ben Okri, author of The Famished Road

“Chloë looks like a nun, but she sings wild!”
—Angelo Badalamenti, film composer
“For many years now, through a time in which the sound of the soul has
been largely muted by the din of the world, Chloë Goodchild’s
characteristic optimism and joy have encouraged it to raise its voice
in song. Her work has touched and opened many lives, and the light and
beauty of her truly liberating spirit shine throughout the pages of
this book.”
—Lindsay Clark, author of The Chymical Wedding and
The Water Theatre
“Chloë Goodchild is one of the foremost proponents of the voice as a
therapeutic instrument for healing spirit, mind and body. In The Naked
Voice she shows herself to be an inspirational teacher who projects
her commitment and enthusiasm to opening up hearts and minds through
the vibration of our voice. She captures the readers’ imagination,
showing us that there is no one who cannot open up their voices to
transform their lives. The Naked Voice will stand alongside those
books that have become classics in the field of voice education and
sound healing such as the late Don Campbell (The Mozart Effect and
Healing at the Speed of Sound) who would be singing its praises.”
—James D’Angelo, PhD, founder of therapeutic vocal sound
program Soundspirit and the author of
The Healing Power of the Human Voice
“[A]n exciting book, exploring dimensions and connections little known
to most of us … Based on her many years of singing and teaching
experience and the stories of her own life, Chloë Goodchild writes
with much passion about the foundational power of the human voice, the
development of self-awareness through sound-awareness, the discoveries
to be made and the wisdom to be gained by an in-depth encounter with
the music within us and the music of life. An unusual approach of
great originality that empowers you to think and act differently. It
makes your heart sing and your body connect in surprisingly new
ways.”
—Ursula King, professor emerita of theology and
religious studies, Bristol University, UK, and author of
The Search for Spirituality
“Chloë Goodchild lives and breathes song. Her lifework, articulated in

call to all souls ready to return to the authentic power and beauty of
their natural voice.”
—Michael Stillwater, founder of Inner Harmony and Song Without
Borders

page. Chloë Goodchild transforms the world into a brighter place. Her
sheer positivity interweaves a truly practical guide where you will
learn to express yourself in ways you never dreamed of. On a personal
note, working with Chloë and her amazing voice was magical. She
transformed my simple notes into something magnificent and wild and
heart-rendingly beautiful. No other singer has ever matched her
performance for me and I am so pleased to be able to say this in
print!”
—Elizabeth Parker, film and television composer, former
member of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop
“Chloë’s voice is primordial. She is a paradisal singer and teacher
whose pure being ignites a sound from the source of creation, graced
with love.…”

—James O’Dea, author of Cultivating Peace
“In
The Naked Voice, Chloë Goodchild invites us on a journey of
self discovery through the power of experiencing our own authentic
voice. This, she tells us, is the DNA of our true identity and, in
this lyrical yet practical book, she invites us to discover, perhaps
for the first time, our original song of the soul. As a voice teacher
and performer, Chloë has transformed thousands of lives around the
world with the potency of sound and song and here, in the written
word, the wisdom of her teachings resonate through every page. Her
words provide a map—a songline—directly into the compassionate heart
that lies beneath rational thought to reveal who we really are,
literally attuning us to our own inner peace, passion, and the divine
bliss that is our birthright. Each chapter effortlessly weaves
together inspirational stories of healing and transcendence, ancient
spiritual knowledge and cutting edge science with practical exercises
and vocal practices, to give us a treasured companion on the road to
awakening.”
—Nicola Graydon, journalist and author of
The Ancestral Continuum
“I was the girl who was told to ‘just mouth the words’ in sixth-grade
choir and was afraid to sing for decades thence. Chloë Goodchild
reconsecrated my voice, tenderly and fiercely drawing it forth until I
knew in my cells that my singing was not only a matter of my own
healing and pleasure, but a profound invocation into a
multidimensional singing field that has the power to serve not only my
own awakening, but that of the planet as a whole. Now Chloë has done
the miraculous: she has written her unique transmission into the pages
of this book. Read it and hear the original, awake, alive and utterly
unique naked voice sing free within you. It will heal your body, open
your mind, and transform all your relationships.”
—Kim Rosen, author of
Saved by a Poem: The Transformative Power of Words
“Even
the most solid of material objects is ultimately a dance of constantly
changing energy patterns. Ultimately it is all rhythm, all music, the
world is sound—Nada Brahma —as the classical Sanskrit philosophers put
it. Chloe Goodchild's magnificent book gives us keys to
this universe we contain within our own voices. If practiced,
the reader will know an inner and outer transformation that is
both miraculous and true.”
—Jean Houston, PhD, author of
The Wizard of Us
"Chloe Goodchild is a rare jewel whose
very presence lifts the hearts and minds of those she
meets. Her authentic wisdom and being shines through her
work, with rich insight and practical applications. Through
her teachings in The Naked Voice, one’s true voice will rise,
bringing an unexpected sense of depth, wellness, and richness to one’s
life."
—Zacciah Blackburn, PhD, director of the Center of
Light Institute of Sound Healing and Shamanic Studies and director of
education, the International Sound Healing Network
