“When I teach someone to sing who wants to be a pop, country or jazz singer, I teach them with the 30+ years of my classical training and performance experience. My singers learn to sing classically. It does not matter if a young singer wants to sing Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Christina Aguilera, Mozart, Verdi or Puccini; the technique and approach is the same. All of my singers study classically. However, they do not all study classical repertoire. I have singers who have finished in the top 50 at American Idol. I have a singer in the new girl group sensation Fine Chynah, soon to be signed with a major record label. I have students who are working with a six-time Emmy award-winning composer on their original music. I have an 11 year old student who was selected out of 22 thousand singers for The’. I have students I am preparing for the National Council Auditions at the Metropolitan Opera. I have students who are working in community theatres and I also have students I am preparing for college scholarships at prestigious conservatoires. My teaching approach remains the same for all.”
