At The Robinett Studio, we offer several options to meet your vocal goals and budget.  If you don't want to sing alone or can't afford private lessons, scroll down for more information about our small group lessons, group classes, and choir.  All lessons, groups, and choirs are scheduled at a time that is convenient for students and instructor.  If you are interested in groups or choir, you will need to find friends or family members interested in registering with you.  


Voice Lesson tuition for all levels covers: 
  • Lessons 
    • Instruction in music reading skills.
    • Music theory, sight-reading, and tonal memory
    • Technical instruction to allow the student to find his or her own natural, free, and healthy sound.
    • Repertoire choices appropriate to their age and vocal development.
    • Strategies to improve memorization.
    • An introduction to basic diction concepts including the use of foreign languages. Students will also learn the basics of the International Phonetics Alphabet (IPA).  
    • Coaching in the interpretive aspects of singing. 
    • Performance opportunities and preparation. 
    • Music history relevant to the songs we are working on.
    • Basic piano keyboard knowledge.
