    About Stephen M.

    I’m an opera singer based in Austin, TX. In addition to both classic and contemporary opera, I perform a wide range of repertoire: musical theater, Gregorian chant, choral music, you name it! I hold a Bachelor of Music degree from Texas Tech University, and a Master of Music degree from Bowling Green State University, both specializing in Vocal Performance. I have operated the Maus Vocal Studio since 2012, and my main goal for all of my students is building a healthy vocal foundation that allows them to enjoy singing for the rest of their lives. I work primarily with middle and high school age students in my studio, but a wide range of ages are welcome. Stylistically I tend to focus on classical and musical theater singing, and I thoroughly enjoy coaching students to prep for auditions or other events. If you want to build your skill, have some fun, and explore singing with joy and freedom, I hope you’ll check out the Maus Vocal Studio!
