Music Lessons in Joanna, PA

Instruments: Voice

I teach a breath based technique with a focus on relaxation. I want to help each individual find their true instrument. I like to use the 24 Italian Songs and Arias (Italian Art Songs) book as a basis for learning breath technique, legato, use of vowels and musicality, as well as being exposed to a foreign language. Alongside of this practice can be musical theater pieces that will target the areas of your voice that need attention and growth. Read More

I've been teaching for about 7 years at all skill levels and truly enjoy connecting with students through lessons.
