    Build up your piano skills with lessons from an award-winning pianist

    I am a Bronx native professional opera-singer that has been studying singing for 10 years and playing piano since the age of 7. I have been teaching both voice and beginner to intermediate piano to all ages for five years throughout the Bronx, Manhattan, and Queens. My voice and piano lessons focus on developing a healthy technique, learning how to sight read, music theory, breathing exercises, acting, and having fun. I teach all genres and can help with audition preparation. My credits include getting students into competitive music schools including Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School and Talent Unlimited High School.

    I started taking voice lessons with Linda after a multiple-year hiatus from singing. She's absolutely amazing!! She's taught me so much about how to sing in a healthy and technically sound way. After a few voice lessons, she's also started teaching me piano and helped with song composition - an extremely knowledgeable and multi-talented teacher!! 10/10 would recommend!!!
