The Flynn-Stack Voice Studio

Andrew Stack holds degrees in voice from Westminster Choir College (B.M., magna cum laude), Indiana University’s Jacob School of Music (M.M), and New England Conservatory (Graduate Diploma). Most recently, Andrew performed in the world premiere of Rhiannon Giddens’ and Michael Abels’ Pulitzer Prize winning opera Omar at Spoleto Festival USA, Carolina Performing Arts, and Boston Lyric Opera. Prior to his switch to tenor repertoire, additional role credits include the title role in Don Giovanni, Malatesta (Don Pasquale), L’horloge comtoise (L’enfant et les sortilèges), Barone Douphol (La Traviata), among others. His teaching philosophy was shaped by two phrases his late mentor, Lindsey Christiansen: “A good voice teacher teaches you how to practice,” and “Good singing is simple and easy, learning to make it so is the hard part.” His goal as a voice teacher is to give every student the vocal and musical tools they need to tell their own stories through singing. He believes that any voice teacher plays a vital role in shaping the narrative that students play in their mind while singing, practicing, even living day to day. That’s why he firmly believes in modeling positive self-talk while maintaining high standards, so that students learn to become their own biggest cheerleaders on stage, while practicing, and while facing challenges in everyday life. Singers especially have to juggle multiple difficult tasks at once: singing, diction, acting, phrasing, breathing, the list goes on and on. While his primary training is in classical singing, good vocal habits like easy breaths, clear vowels, and musical phrasing can apply to any genre! His students regularly participate in MMEA District Festivals and are regularly cast in roles across Boston metro-area school productions.
