Questions relating to qiraat

Q: I have a question about Qiraat. I have heard there are ten different Qiraat. Please kindly explain and also is Qiraat reading in a beautiful voice like where your voice goes high and low. Please kindly explain in detail as we would like to study Qirat and not sure which is correct.

A:

1. There are kitaabs written on this subject such as Al-Itqaan etc. Refer to them.

2. To raise the voice just to conform to a musical sweet tone is not right.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
