ABOUT ME
When I started lessons at the age of 6 with Ms. Ferguson, I had no idea that the most interesting, inspiring and joyful people and experiences I would have in my life would be through those connections I have made through music. I feel fortunate to have degrees from The Royal Conservatory of Toronto, a Master of Music from Boston University, and the University of British Columbia. I was the recipient of the Canada Council Award to study at the Royal Opera house in London (Covent Garden) and was the principal Soprano for the New England Chamber Opera. I was heard in several operas with the Vancouver Opera Company, The Cambridge University Opera Theater and the Rhode Island Opera Company. I have thrilled audiences with my exceptional performances of classical and popular music throughout the United States, Canada and Europe and have released several recordings. I have performed in almost every genre of music. My leading roles include Maria in West Side Story and Carrie in Carousel among many others. I originated the role of Phoebe in the world premiere of Le Devin du Village by Rousseau with the Boston Early Music group, The Friends of Doctor Burney. My client/students have included the well-known singer now with the rock band “Queen”, Adam Lambert and Miss California and the lead in Chicago’s, “Hamilton”, Ari Afsar. Many of my students have gone on to achieve Master’s and Doctoral degrees in Music and others have performed on American Idol, The Voice and America’s Got Talent; including 17 year old Sadie Duca who appeared on AGT at the age of 9 and is now enjoying a thriving recording career.
I am the founder and former CEO of the largest music school in Southern California, California Music Studios, where my staff and I developed more than 1,600 students each year and provided opportunities for more than 2,000 teachers. I am one of the most distinguished teachers in the San Diego area where I teach piano and voice to students of all ages and all styles. The solid technique I work with, serves my students who perform in all genres of music. I works quickly and am very goal oriented with every student, whether they are studying music for the sheer fun of it, or if it is to perform in major venues throughout the world. I always strive to make music fun!

Robert A.
"I'm glad I chose Jennifer she is very professional and she loves what she does. I can't wait to continue to develop my voice and see what I can in the future." Nicolette W. "My initial session with Jennifer was amazing. She understood what I wanted to work on and helped me develop some helpful next steps. Her vibe was both professional and relaxed and she instantly set me at ease. It is obvious to me that additional session with her will provide a lot of value and I look forward to it!" Elizabeth M. "Jennifer is absolutely amazing. She has influenced my daughter through music in such a positive way. My daughter has become incredibly passionate about music and looks forward to her weekly lesson. She’s taken huge leaps in her skills and has grown tremendously because of Jennifer." Anna D. (Jazz Recording Artist and Producer) "I've known and worked with Jennifer about six years now. She's an incredible talent and a gifted teacher who will bring out the BEST in you! Extremely professional (she founded and operated one of the biggest private music schools in the US) and with a tremendous resume of other career accomplishments, both on stage and off. Nurturing, kind and fun too! Wish there were 6 out of 5 stars to give to Jennifer!" Peter M. "I am a professional singer and as such, I am looking for a voice instructor that can fine tune and improve my ability and performance. This takes a uniquely qualified and experienced teacher. In my 40 + years as a performer, Jennifer is the best I have met!" David M. "I feel Jennifer and I have a great connection, we get along fabulously. She is a tremendously talented musician and singer (obviously ). Her abilities as a pianist and singer is equally matched by her ability to professionally yet pragmatically teach, mentor, tutor and guide one in the art of operatic singing. We have established goals. She is the epitome of promptness. I always look forward to my lessons with Jennifer. It is an honor to be her student." |
