Specialties
At Vocal Visions, YOU are the priority. I will help you be the best you can be -- as a singer, as a pianist. My clients tell me that I have a particular knack for describing exactly what needs to happen, through visuals, metaphor, physical descriptions, and demonstration. Many who have had previous teachers have said "no one ever told me how to do this before." Whether it's about support or vocal resonance, or how to play the piano with dynamic flair, I enjoy teaching People -- not clients. I enjoy working with people; learning your particular interests, and relating to you one by one as unique individuals. At Vocal Visions, you will discover and enhance your unique way of expressing music in a fun and supportive atmosphere.
History
Established in 1989.
Vocal Visions began as strictly a studio for teaching voice and drama. I taught the very first voice classes held through what was then the Denver Free University, and is now called the Colorado Free University. I had 27 people in my original class, and most of them continued on as private clients. Through the years they, and many other new students, have had a ball learning how to sing, expanding their musical horizons, and learning how to perform. My studio work has been greatly enhanced by experience gleaned from teaching music in the public schools. For the past 8 years I have also taught piano in addition to voice and drama coaching. The studio continues to grow, taking on new methods of working with technology, with many helpful apps for learning music as well as remote lessons.
