About
I have taught voice, music theory, music history, and aural skills of all genres and voice parts for several years. I can teach all levels including collegiate, and have studied at NYU myself. I have been singing for well over a decade, including for choir, musicals, solo recitals, and operas.
The most important part of singing is vocal health! We can work towards your goals for voice with techniques to ensure vocal strength and agility. The techniques in the lessons I offer will be 100% reliable that you will be able to use for a strong voice your whole life!
In addition to vocal pedagogy, I can also help with stage presence, IPA, and creating the story behind your song! Singing is techniques but it’s also self expression and connecting with others, so be yourself and bring whatever you’d like to work on!

I've taken a couple voice lessons with Peter. He's great, super nice and patient. I know he also teaches piano and has experience in musicals, choirs and operas.

Peter is professional, patient, and knowledgeable about all things contemporary and classical. He taught me invaluable exercises and techniques to help me become the best and healthiest singer I can be. We also worked on an operatic piece I have been working on for months, and he helped me master the parts I was struggling with. I highly recommend setting up a voice lesson with Peter ASAP. He is a rockstar! :)

Peter is a phenomenal teacher with a lot of talent. I went into the lesson just seeking some tips on adjusting my tone and breathing for an upcoming performance, and based on how much better I sounded after one lesson, I will definitely be back for more. Thanks for the coaching Peter!!!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Budget friendly! I will work with your budget. I offer lessons at $40/hr $35/45min and $25/30min for booking four lessons in advance, and $35/hr, $30/45min, and $20/30min for 8 lessons scheduled in advance. Payment is due at the time of scheduling are nonrefundable. Lessons can be rescheduled within the same week; if a lesson is missed and cannot be made up within the same week, it is considered a cancellation.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The first step is to make sure to get an idea of previous knowledge, then to go over any goals or concerns. This way I can make sure to make the lesson for the student’s skill level, well being, and aspirations.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have taken lessons for over 10 years, and studied at Hofstra University and New York University. I have been apart of several choirs, musicals, operas, chamber choirs, collegium, and have set up my own solo recital.
