Conservatory quality private voice lessons at Tuned In are designed to give you the best overall instruction you need. We are here to prepare you for what it is that you want to be musically. If you just want to have a lot of fun and sing the music you want to sing, and learn how do it better, we can help you do that. We prefer the term voice lessons to singing lessons because we won’t just teach you how to sing, we will teach you how to understand and utilize your voice as the instrument it is. We will discuss and teach you however about how to look at the music a little more carefully because we believe that music is never just music. Music has meaning, and as musicians, we should all seek to appreciate that better.
If you want to learn how to be prepared for the rigorous auditions of the military bands, scholarship committees, or conservatories—we can do that too. The purpose behind private lessons is for you to have regular one-on-one personalized instruction, just for you, according to your needs. Private lessons are just $90 monthly for a half hour (weekly) lesson.
