Best Vocal Instructor Cambridge Near Me

Dimitri Makrigiorgos: I had never done any voice lessons before, so I didn't know what to expect and was nervous contacting Adam to begin learning. Adam dispelled all my fears very quickly and I immediately decided to continue taking lessons with him. He helped me with the basics, answering any and all questions I had about singing or music in general. Adam is very welcoming, knowledgeable, and fun to be around. Our lessons were a blast and I always walked out of them feeling refreshed and happy to be alive. I would recommend Adam as a vocal teacher for anyone interested - even if you're a complete beginner who has never sung outside of the shower.

Chris Dalla Riva: I've worked with tons of vocal teachers, and Adam Sherman stands above the rest because he tailors the lessons to what you are trying to do as an artist. As a songwriter and performer who works mostly in rock music, I don't need to be trained like an opera singer. Adam gets that. Over the last few years working together, he's helped me enhance both my vocal control and vocal power. Definitely reach out to Adam if you are looking for a music educator.

kristin moura: I've only had just a handful of lessons so far; but I've already seen improvement in my voice! I started up lessons to run through tracks before my performance. I definitely gained some confidence while going to Celia. The performance seemed so natural and i was just ready for it.

Pauline Flanagan: Highly recommended for the serious student. My teen had been singing for many years and trained with others before beginning with Celia two years ago. The exercises and instruction have made a noticeable difference in vocal range and we could not be happier. Celia is great, going with the flow of different music genres and the studio also has excellent performance opportunities for those who take advantage of them.

Shoshanah Faith: Excellent teacher! The technique she uses will transform your voice. She's kind and patient and all around great person to work with and learn from.

Leni Webber: Celia is a wonderful voice teacher, music career coach, and performer. I have taken lessons from her for several years, and have seen steady, marked improvement. In addition she has helped me guide my career, set business goals, and achieve a level of success that would not have been possible without her. I would recommend her highly to those who want to improve their voice, learn performance techniques, and launch a music career.

Erkan Kusku: I congratulate Mr. Bülent Güneralp, whom I have known very well for many years and whose teaching, training skills and techniques are superior and whose teaching has been strengthened by experience, knowledge and sincerity, for his deep friendship and generosity.

Susie: Bulent reviewI appreciate the Vocathletic System used which incorporates physiology to produce sound that is pleasing to the ear. I have watched my daughter grow as a singer. She has learned how to use her voice naturally and not to force sound. This has allowed her to use her voice without damaging her vocal cords. Her interests are utilized to make concepts understandable and useable.

Nouneh Makarova: Highly recommend!

Eleanor Kolossovski: Bülent is a fantastic voice teacher who is dedicated to the art and science of singing as well as many other related fields. He is attentive to each student’s development needs. I have been learning the Vocathletic System from him since the beginning of the year. Within a few months, I have already noticed significant changes in my vocal quality. Thank you, Bülent, for being patient with me to ensure I can execute each foundational exercise with full awareness and ease. I am looking forward to the journey together to discover the joy of singing.

Jack Rotondi: COVID UPDATE: I’ve worked with Bulent for over ten years and have posted several in-depth and glowing reviews. However, here I want to talk about ONLINE lessons and what separates an excellent online voice teacher from a true master like Bulent. It’s simply this: even with the less-than-desirable audio and video of an online lesson, Bulent’s ability to hear how I am properly or improperly using my anatomy while I sing is positively uncanny. Even during an online lesson Bulent hears and sees the subtlest cues and indications and tells me precisely what I need to shift to have desired result.If you ever doubted you could learn to sing online...don’t...check Bulent out...he’s a vocal Jedi.

Miss Bee: Bulent has been helping me practice my original songs. He’s AWESOME. Helped me gain the confidence needed to expand and grow in my art. Thank you!

David Z: Bulent is the consummate professional when it comes to both signing and mentoring others. Bulent helped me to improve in several ways and I would welcome the opportunity to work with him again in the future.

Peter F: Maestro Güneralp has performed admirably at Easter in churches where I served as music director. He is comfortable singing popular and operatic repertoire. Not only a thorough professional, Bülent is also a true gentleman. He goes out of his way to help everyone, is extremely dependable, and is a dedicated teacher who cares about his students. Highly recommended.Dr. Peter Freisinger, conductor and pianist

Berkin Bolukbasi: Wonderful person and a wonderful coach

Carlos Chapa: I've been taking online classes with Bulent Guneralp from GA. So far has been the only teacher that has helped me to learn proper technique, and to correct bad habits, and dismiss wrong conceptions of what singing is.He's very professional, friendly, and always available if you have questions. He's one of the few teachers that has been a professional singer, and you can find him in youtube. This is important as there's many teachers that are not singers, and it makes a huge difference in the knowledge you can get from them.Bulent it's also a great source of knowledge if you like to learn about other singers, and musicians. He can help you with diet and other esencial advice for your both your personal health and your voice health.I encourage you to navigate through his web page to get a better idea of what I'm saying. I totally recommend him as a teacher.

Katharina Kolos: I wish I could give this review 100 stars! In a nutshell: Bulent is the whole package! His knowledge, expertise and in-depth teaching style surpass that of any teacher I have ever worked with and I couldn’t be more grateful to have found him. In one lesson with Bulent I have already learned more than I had learned after almost 3 years with 4 other teachers!!! He's such a kind and wonderfully positive human being and will offer you SO much more than just “singing exercises”. Bulent will – if you’re interested - teach you ideal nutrition, healthy lifestyle habits and positive attitude about life to make you a healthy, well-rounded singer inside and out! Whether you are a novice singer or an established professional, please give Bulent a try! You see, a singer heavily relies on internal “feelings” and “sensations” when trying to sing correctly. And a skilled teacher needs to be able to explain to you what those correct internal sensations should feel like. Bulent is an expert in that!!I FOUND BULENT ON THUMBTACK:Bulent will teach you about the body’s anatomy in great detail (actually really important to know for proper technique!!), he will tell you how and where sound is generated and every single exercise has a distinct purpose! His exercises are unlike anything I have tried before – he ISN’T just your average “sing up and down the scales” kind of teacher - everything he teaches makes so much sense (And I’ve finally understood where my technique had gone wrong all these years!) and he does it with a lot of patience, kindness and compassion!SKYPE LESSONS:I live in Houston, TX, and therefore Bulent and I go through our lessons via Skype (this is my 3rd month with him). It really is SO convenient! I save a lot of time not having to drive anywhere and I know that no matter where I travel or live, I can keep on learning with Bulent, which is really neat!VOCATHLETIC SYSTEM:This was also totally new to me and the coolest thing. Bulent has a precise, written-down (see his website) strategy for how to get you from point A to point B in your vocal journey. As mentioned earlier, there are numerous teachers that will simply throw random exercises at you or worse, not give you any exercises and simply have you sing up and down the scale and emphasize singing higher and higher notes, regardless of whether you are using correct technique, whether it suits your vocal range etc. In Bulent’s view (and I share it 100%) a singer is nothing less than an athlete predominantly using the muscles surrounding the vocal chords, lower abs (and a symphony of various others) to perform. A runner – also an athlete – trains and uses his leg muscles etc. you get the idea, and as a singer we are no different other than that we use a different subset of muscles. And athletes need a proper training plan and regimen, which is exactly what Bulent’s Vocathletic System encompasses. Once you view yourself as an athlete, you realize that proper nutrition and lifestyle choices might also be necessary for ideal performance and Bulent provides countless resources, pointers and information for these areas as well. By the way, Bulent is also a successful bodybuilder (just check out his Instagram page) and you’ll see for yourself that he knows how to train as an “athlete” in general. Last but not least, to me it was important to find a teacher who has had a professional singer career in the first place, because singing for fun and singing on stage professionally are two very different things and having a teacher who can provide real life experiences and stories from being on stage, is another must have!I know my review is super long but I’m just immensely grateful for Bulent’s knowledge and ability to finally explain so many “vocal mysteries” to me!!!Bulent, THANK YOU for all that you have taught me already and I can’t wait to see what more progress we can make during the upcoming years!

Rebecca B.: Thank you Bulent, I so enjoyed my introductory lesson with you! I learned a lot of valuable information in the short time we spent together- about my body and mechanics, intention, pressure, vibration and sound. You are a very skilled and efficient teacher. I totally recommend your introductory lesson to anyone who uses their voice- your system of teaching is unique and eye opening.

Brandon Land: Bulent is great to work with! He really knows how to improve your voice! I also study with Skype from Tennessee and the lessons go just as good as in person. He's paying just as much attention to you as if you were in the same room. I look forward to improving with his help.

Muhammad Mosaad: Introductory lesson was very informative! I'm located in South Carolina and currently taking Skype lessons with Bülent and he has given me all the necessary resources for having a healthy and exceptional vocal career. We went over the anatomical structure of different vocal mechanisms and how to engage them effectively. Next, we went over exercises involving several vowels and consonants and how to oscillate between them. He then provided me with several resources to practice scales and to gain a more well-rounded understanding of the entire vocal process. As someone who is very systems-based when it comes to learning new things, I highly recommend Bülent as a vocal teacher.

Yejun Kim: Unlike other teachers, Mr.Guneralp teaches the mechanism of the voice rather than teaching you how to sing immediately. This brought an improvement in my singing that I have never experienced beforehand, and showed me the incredible things I can do with my voice. Because I now know how the voice works, I can see better how to use it to attain a broader range and a variety of techniques. I would 100% recommend Mr.Guneralp to any person seeking help in practicing singing!

Domonique Holloway: I was hesitate at first to follow my dreams to be a singer. I wasn't confident in my voice because I had issues with perfecting my pitches and I had poor breathing techniques. One day I finally decided to hire a vocal coach. I came across many vocal coaches ads but Bulent Guneralp was the one ad that stuck out to me. So I decided to give it a try. I thought I would be wasting my money on lessons because I didn't think I would gain anything from the lessons. I started taking singing lessons with Bulent Guneralp back in August. At first, I didn't understand any of the singing exercises. It was something new and a challenge I had to accomplish. Bulent Guneralp is very patient and understanding when it comes to his students. Overtime I was able to perfect the singing exercises and understand how the singing exercises actually helped improved my breathing technique when I sing. I recorded myself singing last week and was amazed of how my voice sounded. Bulent Guneralp has helped me gain confidence in my voice because I didn't know how my voice should sound. Thanks Bulent Guneralp!

Adam Stone: My son, Adam, feels extremely lucky to have connected with Bulent and become his student. Adam started working with Bulent after he was cast in a lead role in his school’s musical. We live in Charlotte, North Carolina, and therefore Adam works virtually with Bulent via Skype. During each lesson, Bulent purposefully and clearly teaches Adam vocal techniques and fundamentals that literally change the way he is able to sing. Every lesson is so rich with information and practice. Bulent is extremely attentive, preparing for the lessons beforehand with the music Adam needs to review, and he is very focused on helping Adam achieve his goals during each session. Adam’s performance as Michael Banks in Mary Poppins was a huge success. He sang beautifully, and with confidence. We look forward to continuing to work with Bulent.

Anu Rama: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I’ve learnt simple techniques and steps that are easy to put into practice from Bulent that show results right away. He makes the lessons fun and is ever- encouraging and kind.

Ruth Park-Hong: I completed the one hour introductory lesson over the summer and left full of new information, along with plenty to process and practice. I was highly impressed by Bulent’s expertise, professionalism, and efficiency, and continue to be. He shares many resources that are relevant and help deepen my understanding of my voice. He is very respectful regarding my goals and limited musical background. In the first lesson, Bulent explained at length how the voice works which was totally new to me. He even addressed some myths which I had actually been taught and unknowingly believed.A few months in, I continue to be impressed by Bulent's love for music, expertise, the quality of his lessons, and his professionalism. He is rigorous, while also thoughtful. Our lessons are full (no wasted time) and he does not mince words. He respectfully addresses the areas that need work so that I don't continue making errors. Bulent is responsive to all my emails and face to face questions. He regularly directs me to additional resources to maximize my growth. I highly recommend him as a voice teacher!

Anna Rotkiewicz: Unbelievably how much my 12 y old daughter learned just in 1 lesson!He is not only excellent singer and teacher, but also understands the wholistic way of taking care of a singer. We are looking forward to continue our amazing journey through voice lessons with Bulent!
