About
Receive expert voice training from experienced dramatic tenor, Thomas Clark, an Estill Voice Certified Master Voice Teacher with over 40 years of singing and teaching experience. Utilizing the scientific, anatomy-based Estill Voice model, we will practice exercises that target every structure utilized in singing. My personal approach stems from performing major roles on stage and working extensively with my teacher, Peter Gregg, who was once the personal coach and accompanist to the legendary Italian dramatic tenor, Mario del Monaco. My unique method of Resonance Shaping involves coordinating and alternating contractions on the pharyngeal wall to shape phrases, resulting in a resonance shift from mouthy to pharyngeal, which produces sustaining resonance and is the hallmark of professional sound. By helping singers identify this resonance and comprehend advanced vocal techniques, I am able to completely transform my students into professional-level performers. My voice lessons are held via Skype at a rate of $80 per hour lesson.

For the last couple of years, I have been under the tutelage of Tom. Throughout this time, not only did he restore my voice that I had been afraid of losing, but he also guided me towards utilizing my voice in manners that I deemed impossible before. Tom is an exceptional instructor whom I strongly endorse.

As a seasoned vocalist specializing in Blues and Jazz, I have found great benefit in working with Tom, an exceptional teacher who is elevating my abilities. Through his instruction, I have discovered new nuances within my voice, all while having a blast. My initial exposure to The Estill method has proven highly effective, enabling me to surpass previous limitations within my range. Tom's expertise as a vocal scientist extends across various genres, from pop to musical theater, leaving me thoroughly impressed and committed to ongoing study under his tutelage.

With plenty of experience and a generous nature, Thomas proves himself to be an excellent teacher. During our initial lesson, he imparted fresh perspectives on singing techniques and provided us with exercises that we could use to improve our vocal capabilities outside of class. As patient as he is attentive, Thomas's guidance was invaluable to us as novice singers. We highly recommend him to any students with a background in music who are endeavoring to unearth and cultivate their own unique vocal abilities.
