Voice Lessons
We currently offer voice lessons from beginner through intermediate levels. (RCM Grade 1 - RCM grade 6).
Students are taught using a variety of voice study materials according to their unique needs and music aspirations. We teach the bel canto method of voice which teaches you to use your diaphragm, ensuring that your voice will be clear and beautiful for years to come. We also seek to provide opportunities to develop skills in ensemble singing, improvisation, and early composition.

Voice Students:
I'm a beginner...If you are a beginner then at your first lesson you will be given the opportunity to share what exposure you have had to music. At your first lesson, you'll learn a few basic notes or exercises on the instrument and begin to learn how to read music.
|
I've taken lessons before...If you have some musical experience in the past, you may be asked to play/sing a song selection of your choice demonstrating your skill on the instrument. You may also be asked to try to play/sing various technical exercises and sight-read a new piece of music.
