Testimonials
I have sung in children’s choirs, adult choirs and church choirs most of my life. I’ve even directed choirs. Nancy helped me to realize that I could reach higher than I ever thought with voice. I had taken some lessons before studying with Nancy, but decided I wanted to study more seriously and work toward completion of RCM grade levels. Decided I wanted to study more seriously and work toward completion of RCM grade levels. When I’m performing and I find myself going to my technique to tackle a difficult section or get myself out of vocal trouble, I give a little thank you to Nancy! Her teaching has been invaluable to me. This past year especially, I notice that I’m getting to a whole new level yet again thanks to the amazing techniques that she employs. Nancy is a lifelong learner, and her learning translates directly into our learning and success as students. There are moments when I’m singing and in my mind I’m thinking “I can’t believe that amazing sound came from ME – and so effortlessly!” Nancy has an amazing ability to connect with students of ALL ages, all backgrounds and all skill levels. I highly recommend Nancy as your vocal coach.” – Joan Carson
In my forties, I began to study with her for my RCM Grade 8, which I successfully achieved after two years. I received my Grade 9 a few years after that. I took a break from voice for 5 years to study for the Grade 9 co-requisites of harmony and history, then returned to vocal training with Nancy to resume studies.
As a participant in a number of her “student recitals” I have had the opportunity to appreciate how dedicated Nancy is to all of her voice students from all age groups. She is there giving support and encouragement to each of us. She nurtures a love of music and makes singing fun.” – Teresa Boughen
