Students choose songs meaningful to them along with songs the teacher recommends to broaden their muscial appreciation and vocal skill. Styles of music include: folk, show, pop, classical. Interpretation and acting skills are developed. Students learn the language of music (rhythm, pitch, symbols ) through games and activities.

    Frank is probably my favorite vocal instructor yet. He's patient. He's helped me go from Lyric Baritone to Action/Lyric Tenor. I'm so proud of myself, and truly grateful of his technique in teaching others. Highly reccomend. Plan on going back soon for some revamps.

    Excellent teacher. Frank is patient, kind, and knowledgeable. He helped me become better aware of my range and posture. I’m a better singer because of him. Highly recommend.
