The VCM offers voice lessons for students at all levels from beginners to professionals. Students may take lessons for enjoyment, to prepare for the Conservatory examinations, or to hone professional skills.

All voice students registered at the VCM are encouraged to participate in the following additional activities:

Advanced Voice Workshop
This course is an opportunity for advanced students and professional singers to explore all aspects of their performance. Using a masterclass format we will work with technique, style, interpretation, bodywork and presence to create powerful performances and empowered performers.
