Student Reviews
During my 3-months stay in NYC, I took voice lessons with Elisabeth. She was such a nice, fun and professional teacher, I always enjoyed going to her lessons. In the past, I used to sing only pop music but thank to her I learned that classical songs were really beautiful and fun to sing, too! When my mother visited me in NYC, she also took a few lessons with Elisabeth and was very enthused as well. I really miss Elisabeth's voice lessons!

Guitars may be played acoustically, where the tone is produced by vibration of the strings and modulated by the hollow body, or they may rely on an amplifier that can electronically manipulate tone.
