Scarsdale, NY Broadway Singing Lessons

I've been teaching Broadway style singing to adults and kids for over ten years, focusing on how to produce a big, beautiful and vocally safe sound.

I have students who have agents and who have sung in shows.

I have been a professional singer and teacher for many years. I help my students build their instrument and strengthen their voice. We also will take the time to find appropriate repertoire and characterization.

Born and raised on Long Island, Carolyn began working professionally at 8 years old and has since appeared on stage, in national commercials, recorded voiceovers, and booked principal roles in both film and television. She earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2011 from the Boston Conservatory, where she majored in musical theater with an emphasis in directing. She is currently in the hit Off-Broadway shows “My Big Gay Italian Wedding” and “My Big Gay Italian Funeral”. In her spare time, Carolyn has always loved working with people who have a passion for the arts. Whether you are interested in working on vocal technique, audition preparation, and/or building your rep book, Carolyn will customize lessons in order to help you reach your goals!

I am studying to become a professional classical singer. Through my own training, I have discovered that having an amazing teacher – one who is supportive, caring, and hard working, and who will push you and work with you to be better – is the most important tool an aspiring musician can have. I believe that every student is different, as no person's body is the same, and no vocal instrument is the same. Based on my performance in the Teaching of Singing course at Oberlin Conservatory of Music, I was selected to be a voice teacher to non-Conservatory students at Oberlin College. I have now had several students, two of whom, with my assistance, have just been accepted to prestigious summer programs in classical voice. Though I have only been teaching voice to others for a year now, I have been teaching myself alongside my own teachers through practice and independent work for the past nine years, and I have discovered countless techniques and tricks to help every aspect of singing.

I am an NYC professional actor and singer. I have worked extensively across the country as a musical theatre actress and am represented by Wright Talent. From national tours, NYC-area theatres, and regional work, I have a lot of experience to offer! I graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point in 2014 and trained under many professionals in musical theatre and classical voice studies. I am a proponent of the Bel Canto school of singing and can offer training for beginners-advanced students. We will work on building your range, stamina, develop technique, refine your timbre, and make singing FUN and simple! I am dedicated to my own on-going study and work with a professional coach myself.

I aim to provide a judgement free and encouraging atmosphere! Whether you are beginner looking to gain confidence in your voice, a high school student looking to apply for Musical Theatre schools, or a more advanced singer, lets work together and make you the best possible YOU!

Laura's lessons are fun, high-energy, and tailored to meet every student's goals, whether it is to become a Broadway star or living room diva (or divo)! With over a decade of experience teaching both privately and in classrooms, Laura loves to help singers and actors excel at auditions, competitions, and performances by guiding the performer to connect with the storyteller inside. Her students have performed on and off Broadway, at Carnegie Hall, in national tours, on TV, and in theaters all across the US and Japan. And you can be next!

I'm passionate about sharing my knowledge and helping students find their own unique voices, no matter what kind of music they'd like to sing. Lessons include vocal technique plus work on repertoire, music theory, and/or sight singing, depending on the individual student's interests and needs.

Singing is one of the most joyful activities you can do! Anyone can learn to sing.
I love teaching others to sing and perform, and I've been doing so for over 20 years - through private lessons, music theater workshops, music schools and choruses. I work with students where they are at and help them to build a solid technique that works for them.

(The percentage of people who are actually tone deaf is very, very small.)

A teacher of singing cannot actually see the student's instrument. With this in mind, we find a common language to describe the physical and acoustic sensations to determine the most healthy and long-lasting technique possible.
I have been teaching for over 7 years from beginner through advanced (graduate degree) students. I emphasize vocal freedom, resonance, alignment and posture, breath management and support, and style/expression. I try to help each student find more joy and ease in his/her artistic journey.
