I currently give private vocal lessons in North Hollywood, CA, at the M. Gray Music Academy. (www.mgraymusicacademy.com)
The sessions are individually tailored to meet the singer’s needs, from beginners and novices to professionals who want to enhance their vocals or who may be experiencing vocal problems. The typical first session is 45 minutes where I will give you a complete explanation of the EZ Vocal Method technique and an evaluation of your particular voice and a plan for your development. The particular goals I strive to achieve with every client are to increase range and power, improve tonal quality, ensure pitch accuracy, eliminate vocal problems that could lead to injury, instill confidence and create a sense of ease in singing. Sessions are recorded to CD to enable the singer to have practice material and review the session. The typical session begins with vocal exercises and warm up, followed by a practical application of these exercises to your personal song selection. I find it extremely important for the singer to begin working on actual songs in the very first lesson. This insures that the techniques we are using will be understandable to you.
I guarantee the results in the very first lesson. This means that you will experience a noticeable difference in your ability to sing by the end of that session. I also do work with vocal groups (meaning those singers who perform together) however, it is essential that on the first appointment I have an individual session with each member of the group. Thereafter sessions can be done with all members at the hourly rate. At the time an appointment is made, I will give you all the necessary information and what you will need for the fist appointment. I schedule appointments Tuesday through Saturday with various times available.
Rates:
Private voice lessons are $75.00 per half hour; however, the first lesson is 45 minutes for $75.00. I also extend a one time series rate to new a client which is a 10% discount when purchasing 4 or more lessons in advance. Most clients only need ½ hour per week. If you want to advance more quickly and come in for more than one session per week, you will receive a 10% discount.
I also offer recording studio rates and group sessions which will depend on location, day and time or number of singers in the group. Please discuss your personal requirements with me directly.
