Lou is great to work with because he adjusts his teaching style based on your voice. Whenever I have an important audition, he is super helpful and gives great notes. I still use his vocal warm ups, and have a career that revolves around performing because of him. I highly recommend Lou!

I never considered myself a good singer, just thought I could carry a tune, but Lou knew how to teach and guide me and choose songs that were very fitting to my voice, but challenging at the same time. I learned a lot from him, gained confidence and grew as a vocalist.

He personalizes the material to your strengths. He also has the ability to push you beyond your comfort zone while still keeping you completely comfortable. He helped me increase my range, breath control, and learn to not only sing a song, but live in the moment of the piece.

Lou expertly engages all critical musical elements to cultivate you as a musician and performer. Working with your own styles, Lou guides you through maximizing your vocal potential and expanding your skill portfolio through technical vocalises, breathing exercises, chart reading and management, ensemble techniques and repertoire building.

Lou is the absolute best voice teacher I have ever worked with. His ability for choosing music based on vocal range, role you are auditioning for, and type of actor you are is always spot on.

Lou was the best voice teacher I have had! I always considered myself a dancer who sings, and Lou helped me become a more confident singer. He was always patient, made me laugh, and pushed me to reach my fullest potential. I only wish I could have spent more time learning from this awesome teacher!

Lou always knows when you’re not allowing yourself to grow. He chooses songs that push you to expand your range, and when you have suggestions he takes them into serious consideration with his teaching. He is very no nonsense, but his lessons are always fun!

Lou has always taking the time with me. Now since I’m graduate we’ve being preparing auditions and every time I go out to audition I’ve always been fully prepared. Being in a show we constantly review the material so that next rehearsal I’m fully prepared. Lou has made me a better singer, prepared me for the real world and I always have a good time in his lessons. The best is that I always look forward to voice lessons. I’m truly grateful for him and his teachings.

Lou is a real and authentic person, a rare find in today’s world. I really enjoyed learning from Lou about relatable vocal experience and practice as a working musician. He also is very knowledgeable in musical theater and business
-
Pussywillow
He pushed me. He saw my potential and made me get out of my comfort zone so THANK YOU for that. He always seemed to be personally invested in your growth not just b/c he’s cool or playing the piano for you and felt comfortable to cuss but he was thoughtful in his song selections. He saw your voice AND personality and those aren’t always on the same thread.
-
Ally Borgstrom
Fun, open, and safe atmosphere to learn and grow as an artist. Lou was not only a great teacher but a wonderful friend. I came in with little experience, thinking I was an alto and he transformed my voice in a soprano with a mixed belt. He’s patient and kind but will make you work very hard. He is very supportive and always there when you need him. There were times where I needed help with an audition last minute and he always came through for me. I highly recommend taking lessons from him, you will improve so so much.

Lou is very friendly, but he’s not afraid to tell you when you mess up. It’s very strengthening. It also helps that he has such expierence, so he know’s what he’s talking about.
