    About Isaiah S.

    4.9
    (10)
    Former attendee of North Carolina School of the Arts in Winston Salem as well as SUNY Purchase School of Music. I've worked as a professional church choral music director, and have extensive experience teaching (in addition to piano) hand drums, drumset, singing, and beginning guitar -- all in a variety of genres. I help singers achieve vocal freedom, connecting most directly to songs as well as their natural voice. I perform around my local area in a variety of venues from upscale wine bars to weddings. I live, teach, and play with passion -- and look forward to sharing that with every new student I meet.

    This was my first time trying music lessons. Isaiah Was able to help me feel comfortable singing and acquire more of a natural sounding voice. and over the course of 4 weeks worth of lessons i was able to improve greatly in my abilities to the point where i'm confident now :) would recommend and will be back for more!

    Isaiah was patient and helpful, a good music teacher who gave my daughter the skills to improve in her instrumental music class.

    Isaiah worked with me to identify my vocal range, and where I fell short in my vocal abilities. Isaiah gave me tailor made exercises to improve my singing . I began to hear the change in just a couple of sessions. He is really patient and individualistic in his approach, which makes him in awesome teacher. I would recommend Isaiah to anyone in a heartbeat.
