” Victoria Rapanan is the only voice teacher in the area that I know of with her level of expertise in vocal technique, as well as performance. I have studied with her for the past 6 years. Understanding the nature of the ever evolving vocal instrument, she herself studies under master vocal technicians, such as Maestro David Jones. A true professional, Victoria continues to perform, as well as maintain a successful voice studio. She has an impeccable ear for what a student’s strengths and weaknesses are, and knows numerous techniques and exercises to attain the potential of one’s voice. Having hit some roadblocks in my studies prior to studying with Victoria, I have made new discoveries and strides under her guidance. “

” I have found working with Victoria a real joy. Her knowledge of technique, her ability to instantly hear problems and fix them, and her clear and concise vocabulary have really improved my singing in the past  year. I feel very fortunate to have found a voice teacher who is not only good at what she does, but who loves to teach, and is sincerely interested in and supportive of her students and their careers. The combination of these is quite rare indeed. “

” Victoria has been my opera teacher for the past 3 1/2 years. I have seen great improvement in my voice. My high notes have become strong and powerful. My middle and lower voice have shown great improvement. Victoria gives us stage experience with “Studio Nights” and concerts in a beautiful church. She is a very kind and honest person. I highly recommend Victoria to anyone who wants to improve his/her singing voice. “
