Nancy Kelly Vocal Studio

Studios in Syracuse NY , Rochester NY, Sterling NY and internationally with Skype! Nancy teaches "The Art of Popular Singing and Vocal Jazz Techniques" privately and at several colleges in upstate New York, focusing on what she calls "conversational singing." In Nancy's words: "I do not teach how to sing particular songs or any particular style of music. While I have students that study Jazz singing with me, my classes are intensive study on how to use the voice in all forms of popular music."

She has combined techniques from the classical discipline with her 40 years experience singing everything from rock to jazz. By taking a scientific look at what she does when she sings, she's developed a pedagogy (style) for teaching popular voice. This is real singing for the 21st century. It is not classical study.

The student uses scales to gain control and learns to translate that knowledge into a piece of music, focusing on proper tone, body placement and use of vowels and consonants and proper breathing. "Then they learn to first read a lyric, then sing it as one would say it. My approach teaches you to be yourself and develop your own style," Nancy explains.

With 40 years of experience as a performer and recording artist, Nancy has a storehouse of knowledge to share with the aspiring singer and the working professional alike. Study with Nancy and learn how to be more yourself than you ever dreamed of being!
