About Lauren C.

5.0
(17)
Welcome to my studio! I believe in teaching healthy and effective singing, emphasizing character and intention, and incorporating general music theory. I also teach piano and music theory to beginner and intermediate levels. I have extensive experience teaching all genres to kids, high schoolers, and adults; I feel comfortable teaching all levels! Due to the pandemic, I have learned to be very efficient with online voice and piano lessons! I have all the tools to help you reach your goals! I have years of performing and teaching experience, and am constantly learning and growing in both fields. I have sung a variety of roles in opera and musical theater all over the world, including Italy, Vienna, Prague, New York, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Iowa, Oklahoma, Delaware, Florida, and Louisiana, as well as solo work in Boston's Symphony Hall and the Museum of Art, and Philadelphia's Kimmel Center. I also taught choir for a few years on top of private voice/piano lessons. I attended LSU for my undergraduate degrees in Voice Performance as well as Music Education, and graduated from The Boston Conservatory with my MM in Voice Performance, and a Professional Studies Certificate. I have also spent several years studying voice under a certified Alexander Technique teacher.

Lauren Cook is the most amazing instructor I’ve ever had. Her endless patience and passion for what she does is infectious. If I could give her 10 stars I would.

I am so grateful that I found Lauren!! She offers a safe, no judgment space to learn and grow in my vocal technique. When I don't understand a concept that she is teaching me, she is able to adapt how she is explaining it until I can fully grasp what she means. I feel like I have improved so much since we started working together - not just in singing, but also with my stage presence in general. I am singing with so much more ease than I ever have before. She is the best, and I cannot recommend her enough!!!!

I have taken lessons with Lauren for two years, and she is an amazing teacher! I take voice lessons from her, and recently I also started taking piano lessons as well. She is super patient and is very good at figuring out just the right thing to help me. If something doesn't work, she finds a new way to say it, and I have grown so much working with her! I would highly recommend her. She is a great teacher and a very kind and caring person.
