    Hello, and thank you for your interest! My name is Inna Dudukina, I'm a vocalist, pianist, composer/ arranger and multi-instrumentalist. I come from a family of musicians, and quite frankly I had no choice but to start studying piano from a very young age. I have been touring as a classical pianist when I was 7, and later I started studying jazz voice. Eventually, in the competition that took place during the Berklee Asia Scholarship Tour in 2009, I won the full tuition scholarship to study in Berklee College of Music, Boston. In Berklee, I studied Vocal Performance, and Contemporary Writing and Production. In addition to my classical and jazz studies, I was deeply influenced and moved by ethnic and world music, as well as production and arranging techniques in most contemporary genres. I have worked with multiple critically acclaimed artists and composers (my diploma was given to my by Jimmy Page, and yes i will be bragging about it quite a lot), I shared the stage with illustrious artists such as Gary Burton, Layth Sidiq, Vadim Neselovskyi, Tigran Hamasyan, and Zakir Hussain. Last year, I acted as a pit musician in the musical written by Tony, Grammy, and Pulitzer Prize award-winning composer Tom Kitt. I look forward to working with you to develop your voice, piano, and/or composing skills, and reach your goals!

    Inna is a fantastic teacher who has helped me come a long way with my vocal technique, as well as feel confident with my own voice. Two years ago, I came to her as a novice singer with weak control of my vocal muscles and little sense of how to properly approach a song. Ever since, I have learned to comfortably sing in styles I previously didn’t even consider because I perceived them as too difficult. She has a keen sense for customizing warm-up exercises and giving constructive feedback. For whatever song I wanted to practice, she helped me make it my own. Additionally, Inna is very patient, good-humored, and knowledgeable. She even she encouraged me to write my own music and helped me learn composition. I have surprised myself through these lessons. I highly recommend lessons with Inna!

    Inna was very knowledgeable and great at teaching vocal technique. She taught several diverse vocal styles which were tailored to my specific needs and helped me grow as a singer much faster than I thought I could.

    A great teacher! I've been taking lessons with Inna since March 2018 and have no plans of stopping soon. Inna keeps things fun and stress-free, and my lesson is something I look forward to every week. Definitely recommend!
