Golec Music Studio

Golec Music Studio specializes in an array of music and educational services: piano, voice, music theory, and composition lessons, masterclasses, Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate exam prep (Dr. Golec serves on boards of examiners for both institutions), college audition prep, music theater and production audition prep, music competition prep, recordings, transcriptions, performances, weddings, funerals, and corporate events.

​

Dr. Golec has over twenty years of experience teaching students of all ages and levels. She has in-depth experience teaching piano and voice in private and group settings, teaching children under five years old, children and adults with learning disabilities, coaching choirs, organizing and leading concerts, as well as training and performing for diverse audiences. Prior to a performance, Dr. Golec enjoys discussing the compositions she is about to perform and she engages in a dialogue with the audience during each concert.

​

Students taught by Dr. Golec have the opportunity to perform at Young Musicians' Concerts twice a year. These concerts have served as fundraisers for BackPack Program, Music Ministry and the Food Pantries at Our Mother of Sorrows and Holy Cross Churches. Young Musicians' Concerts were founded in 2016 and the goal of these events is to provide a stress free and positive experience for performers to showcase the enormous amount of talent in our community. The students do not have to memorize their repertoire, and choose when they would like to perform.

​

Dr. Golec's former students have received highest marks on AP exams, as well as acceptance, scholarships and assistantships at Eastman School of Music, Ithaca College, Roberts Wesleyan College, Nazareth College and SUNY Potsdam.

Dr. Golec is the recipient of 2020 SUNY Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in Teaching and 2024 Victor Business Award for her music studio. In August 2024 she was interviewed by Rochester Woman magazine (https://issuu.com/kellybreuer/docs/rwo_july2024/62) and was nominated to Ontario County International ATHENA Leadership Award.
