    I took a few voice lessons with Jonathan to improve my speaking and singing voice. I discovered…read morethat my real voice was much lower than what I was used to. To my surprise, many people have complimented my speaking voice since then. I considered the lessons as masterclasses as they were unconventional but extremely effective. Highly recommend!

    Inside Voice and Jonathan's teaching is such a gift in my life and work. I have no musical training…read moreand beyond singing, mostly silently, to my favorite songs, I never previously used my voice to make music. I spend a lot of time avoiding my creative expression, despite knowing I wanted more of it in my life. When I finally stepped out and gave myself to my desire for more expression, I wanted to both learn more about my voice and how it's shaped by my inner life. Inside Voice fit the bill from my first lesson. Jonathan met me and my voice right where it was with care, while clearly sitting in his knowledge and expertise. Over the course of my time at Inside Voice, I have been guided both clearly, with playfulness and almost magical intuition into a fuller understanding and expression of voice. I see now how my voice can reflect and inform who I am and the range of expression I can sing into the world! What a pleasure to experience Jonathan's work and learn how to bring it to more and more of my creative life. I've gained the confidence to go further in my creative expression in my voice practice, but also in my whole life. I am so excited to explore the creative, imaginative and expressive worlds this work continues to open in me. It is such good medicine in my life. Grazie mille Jonathan Stancato and Inside voice!

Her expertise, patience, and personalized approach have helped me grow tremendously as a singer.Evelyn has a deep understanding of vocal technique, from breath control and resonance to diction and pitch accuracy. Whether preparing for the roles she equips students with the tools to perform confidently, including stage presence and emotional expression. Her guidance will help you unlock your full vocal potential. Highly recommended!

    I am a practicing physician and a perpetual student of singing. For more than fifty years, I have…read morebeen continuously taking vocal lessons from many professional singers. I typically switched after three years when my progress would plateau after the same study routines. I have been studying with Miss Evelyn LaQuaif for the past 20 years and am happily surprised that in my mid-seventies, I am singing my very best and still improving. Most of my previous teachers gave me metaphoric inspiration, as I would hopelessly imitate their better voices. But how could I get there? Miss LaQuaif is the only one who taught me the physical mechanics of good singing. She offers details that are palpable and teaches hands on: "Belly breathing...use your ribs...your tongue is too loose...guide your voice with your hand...oh, you forgot to rest..." Miss LaQuaif is a multi-talented artist that has that rare talent and sensitivity to feel and guide the students' muscle coordination -- minute details of tongue, palate, throat, and diaphragm that are invisible to ordinary people's external observation. She has the ear and mental conception for what is naturally beautiful in the student's voice. Her method of teaching is creative and often changing. The result: a strengthening of the singing muscles and shedding counterproductive habits that have stood in the student's way. Throw in a little psychology, human empathy, and a profound respect of the art of singing -- then you may sense what Miss LaQuaif is like as a teacher. -JCWM

    Felicia is an absolute gem. I'm a classically trained instrumentalist with a Master's in…read morePerformance, and getting back into singing felt intimidating - I knew I'd need someone truly special to guide me. Felicia has far exceeded my expectations. Working with her, I've learned more about the intricacies of my own body and how to look within to find different colors, textures, and resonance. She's so much more than just a music teacher. She's an explorer and detective, helping me uncover my own voice and capabilities. There are moments when I'm in awe of the sound coming out of my mouth and even say out loud, "Where did that come from?!" I've also struggled with tension in my voice, neck, and shoulders, and vocal care is something Felicia is deeply passionate about. As someone who's dealt with performance anxiety, I used to feel safer "hiding" behind an instrument. Singing has always felt much more vulnerable. But lately, I've had the courage to sing for friends and family. I'm finally starting to trust that I'll get to a place where I can perform in front of a crowd with confidence, no longer feeling the need to have something shield me. I've worked with many musical teachers over the years, and Felicia is nothing short of amazing. Highly recommend!

After getting the recommendation from my choir teacher, I began working with Felicia Betts shortly after my diagnosis. Felicia did an excellent job at building my voice back up and helping me overcome my fears post injury. She helped me find my sound again and also gave me a lot of tools in order to prevent injury again in the future. In addition, Felicia is very helpful when it comes to audition prep and guided me through my college auditions. I am now a freshman receiving my BFA in musical theatre and my voice is the healthiest it's ever been. I am so grateful for everything Felicia has taught me and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for lessons.

    I'm a contemporary pop singer and I've been studying with John off and on for over 20 years. He's…read morebeen vital to my work maintaining my vocal capacity as a touring performer. What he offers his students is very unique--a chance to really build your voice from scratch, understand and utilize proper technique, and go beyond what you think you're capable of doing. He's a highly experienced coach who will champion your progress and will encourage you to go far.

    Back when I lived in Philadelphia, I started lessons with John. Every other review (they're all…read more5-stars) is right on point. John's method is comprehensive and he explains what the process is every step of the way. It definitely seemed a bit unusual to me at first, because I hadn't heard singers do exercises like his before, but the results were undeniable. The improvement was noticeable right away, but the results only got better with time. It's worth it to stick with it for a long time to get the most out of it. His "voice-building" technique really works on a fundamental level, completely building great technique from the ground up. My projection, dynamics, pitch, breathing, sustain, and overall technique had a dramatic transformation for the better. I also didn't realize just how much it was possible to increase vocal range, but John's method will dramatically increase range. I can now consistently hit notes that I didn't think I was capable of before. I really can't imagine that you'd get these kinds of results from just any old vocal instructor. I did lessons for two years and consistently improved. The only reason I stopped doing lessons with him was because I moved away, otherwise I'd likely have continued for quite awhile. Highly recommended.

    Matt brought my guitar and ukelele from "Rustic Grime" to Masterpiece!…read more I brought my 20-year-old Walden Natura D550 and a vintage 1953 ukulele to Matt, and the results are honestly shocking. The '53 uke was in rough shape--old, rustic, and covered in decades of grime. Matt transformed it completely. He finely detailed the body until it was shining like a mantle piece, fixed the tuners, and recommended Nylgut strings that make it sound incredible. It went from a dusty relic to a daily player that I can't put down. For my Walden guitar, Matt performed "wild work." The action was high and the strings were dead, but he used a "cold clamp" technique on the neck and hand-carved a perfect unbleached bone saddle. He even recommended a spectacular cocobolo bridge to match the guitar's aesthetic and tone. Both instruments came back sounding "shockingly fantastic." If you have an instrument that has lost its "soul" or just needs expert engineering to sing again, Matt is the man to see. A true master of his craft and a total professional.

During our conversation I noted that his passion for Guitars was clearly evident. I felt confident that he would bring more musical life to this instrument. Matthew checked fret wear, the string action (and spacing) , the guitar neck, tonality, guitar bridge and stability, string groove, action, tuners, fret buzz, saddle height, intonation, pick up height, stable tuning and much more, He is meticulous and precise. My instrument now has new Life, Vibrancy and now runs on all Musical Cylinders! It is a pleasure to know Matthew and the positive aura that is felt when you are at MW Guitar Repair. You will walk in with a smile and leave with a bigger smile. Thank You friend. I truly appreciate the intense work you perform. Additonally your work is of Heart and Soul, sincerely..
