Everyone is born with a beautiful voice – and this means you!
Sounds Wonderful presents a unique and exciting take on the world of voice, expression, communication and music – even how to listen. With over 30 years experience of introducing people to the power of their own voice and expression to presenting at the top of the corporate ladder, Chris James’ unique ability to encourage the full potential of our voice and expression has been experienced by thousands.
Speaking – Singing – Communicating
Everyone naturally has power, strength, warmth, clarity and authority in their voice and expression just waiting to be expressed.
As the voice of your company, your school, you as an individual, a professional actor, musician – or you are simply terror struck by speaking out. You can be the REAL YOU in your expression as you Discover Your Natural Voice.
From communication and teamwork in the corporate world to ‘speaking up and singing out’ in our daily life, the quality of our expression is a reflection of who we are in everything we do.
Chris James founded Sounds Wonderful in 1994 with the inspiration to ‘teach the world to sing and to love the sound of their own voice’ and it has since grown into a business that offers so much more.

‘Everyone is born with a beautiful voice and the ability to express freely’

Chris loves community. Being able to feel confident as we communicate and express is something that relates to everyone, and Chris makes this relative and practical for work and daily life.
The ‘healing power of sound’ – supporting unity and connection in people, with themselves and each other is Chris’ gift to the world, and he has the most amazing ability to bring it. He leads thousands at corporate events and at major festivals, creating instant choirs and runs retreats and workshops internationally.
A masterful musician and brilliant singer, Chris brings true heart and soul to all his music.
His CDs of songs, instrumentals and purpose-composed pieces are played worldwide in homes, offices, clinic waiting rooms, massage schools . . . and at full volume in the car.
‘Everything that is in our voice is a reflection of what we hold in our body – tension and stress, or harmony and ease. Our voice reflects where we are at, so when fear, anxiousness and tension release . . . harmony naturally takes their place. I have found there is always more to learn about voice and expression, it never stops’, says Chris.
