I love singing. While my background is classical, I love Broadway, jazz, pop, my students sing everything from the Messiah to heavy metal. My greatest concern is that whatever you do, it has to be healthy. You should never get a sore throat. You should have fun, while learning to be healthy with your voice

It's been a true pleasure exploring this new world of claiming my voice. Rae has been such a wonderful person to help lead the way, and with each session I'm slowly starting to become more confident in myself, and my voice. Rae is really teaching me how to embrace all the good, the bad, and the ugly along this path way. I can't say it enough, but thank you for allowing me the space to explore this new side of myself. I highly recommend Rae if you are looking for someone to help push you out of your comfort zone, and without any judgement along the way! More...

Rae has been a wonderful vocal instructor for me. She challenges her students to sing fearlessly. In her private lessons, she shows students how to sing from their core. Her lessons have been massively helpful for me in my development as a singer. I would recommend her for anyone looking to develop their understanding of music and strengthen their singing technique!

Laura D'Angelo
Singing Lessons
I have been having an amazing experience working with Rae. She has helped me get out of my comfort zone by using my voice and putting me at ease from the shyness I once had. As a grown adult she is getting me to learn so many technics that I never knew were involved. She is very accommodating to scheduling and will do video calls as well. I would highly reccommend her, and listeningto hear her voice when she teaches is truly inspiring. More...

Marina
Singing Lessons
I never had voice lessons before and started as a complete beginner. Thanks to Rae’s instructions, after a few lessons, I realized that I can sing! She helped me to discover my voice. Rae has multiple ways of explaining concepts and has a lot of practical tips. She guided me with her friendly approach, encouraged me and it worked. We all have potential. Rae is a great person and amazing voice teacher. More...

Laurie, Extraordinarily nice, what a lovely thing to say. Thank you. I do love singing.
What do you love most about your job?
The human voice is the most wonderful toy I was ever given. As the teacher, I get to play in everyone's toybox. I really have fun.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I couldn't imagine doing anything else. When I was 4, I told my mother I'd be an opera singer when I grew up. There was never any other path for me.
Why should our clients choose you?
I will protect your voice. I'll teach you to sing in many different styles for many years, and always feel good about what you're doing.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Most of my teaching is done online. I use either Google Meets or FaceTime. It works extremely well. All I have to do to teach is to hear you clearly.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
All my in person students are vaccinated. I'm fully vaccinated and get a booster every time a new one comes out.
Private Voice Lessons
One-on-one voice lessons, either in person in my home in Caldwell or online, emphasizing the healthiest way to use the voice, regardless of the styles you work in. My background is classical, but I love Broadway, jazz, pop, and my students do everything from Handel's Messiah to heavy metal.
My greatest concern is that you never hurt yourself. That will also get you the most range, the most accurate pitch, and overall best sounding voice.
I'm 73 and still have my high notes as well as singing for hours every day without strain. I want that for all my students.
I also teach my students to read.
