Private Lessons

Private lessons for students ages 14 and up (or by evaluation) are designed to meet the needs and goals of each student. Lessons emphasize breathing, vocal technique and pedagogy. Performing is encouraged.

Vocal Coaching

Vocal coaching is offered for students with specific interests in popular, rock, country or jazz styles. Proper vocal approach is stressed but with less emphasis on technique and more effort placed on building a repertoire of the students' choice.

Voice Classes

Voice classes are designed for the young singer, ages 10-13, looking to gain experience and basic technique. Classes focus on the fundamentals of breathing, vowel placement, sight-reading and ear training. A wide-ranging repertoire will be studied with emphasis on the classical and musical theater genres. Solo and choral repertoire will be studied at every level. Age, vocal maturity and experience determine level placement. Students wishing to enroll in Level II or III must be evaluated by the Vocal Director.
