About Teresa R.
5.0
(1)
After a 20 year professional career as a classical singer living in Europe, I have returned to the United States where I am a Music Director and private vocal instructor and coach. I teach students of all ages both in my home,through Skype, and at student's location. I have taught voice at the Eastman School of Music Community Education Department, Roberts Wesleyan College, and have adjudicated vocal competitions. I have helped students to secure leads in musicals, win competitions, be admitted into music schools and have successful solo careers both here and in Europe.
*** Lesson Details ***
I love teaching voice. It is wonderful to discover the true voice within someone through lessons. I take the time to really understand my students and their individual needs. I gently nurture and give encouragement. I teach the basics in tone production and breathing. Musicality and diction are a very high priority in my studio. I can cover the basics in music if these skills are lacking. I can teach various genres of music believing that a good, solid vocal technique can be applied to any kind of singing. I am also very patient and kind and know what it's like to entrust your instrument, a part of you, in someone else's care. I like to look at my lessons as a journey not only to the goal of healthy, free singing but to a student's self-discovery as well.
*** Studio Equipment ***
I have a separate room in my home with a grand piano within a large space and nice acoustics.
*** Travel Equipment ***
A piano or keyboard on site is helpful.
*** Specialties ***
After a 30 year professional career as a classical singer, I do specialize in opera but I have also performed in the Broadway, jazz and pop genres as well. I believe good healthy singing can take you far and prepare you for any genre.
