Voice & Piano Lessons with Caprice Corona and Erik Nelson Werner





Singing is one of the most amazing, rewarding and joyful activities human beings are capable of!  Everybody sings -- in the shower, in the car, to their children...it doesn't matter whether you can keep a tune, have a "pretty" voice, or know anything about music: learning to sing teaches confidence, helps with physical and emotional well-being, and develops discipline and focus.

The only thing more rewarding than singing itself is TEACHING singing!  And I am pleased to announce that my husband and I are now offering voice lessons in our new home of Elk Grove, California, after leaving busy New York City for the peace and quiet of the suburbs.

Both my husband and I are experienced music teachers, having taught singing and piano for over 10 years to young and old, from absolute beginners to aspiring professionals.  Erik received his musical education from some of the best teachers in Germany, studying voice and piano at the renowned Hochschule für Musik in East Berlin.  I graduated magnum cum laude from Harvard University with a Bachelor of Arts in Music and Anthropology before studying voice at Boston's New England Conservatory and earning both a Master of Music in Vocal Performance and a Master of Music in Opera Studies.  We have had the tremendous luck and honor to have taken masterclasses from some of the best artists living, and together we try to pass on as much of that knowledge as we can.

We teach classical vocal technique, which forms the basis for all styles of singing: opera, musical theatre, jazz, pop or rock.  Individually tailored lessons give each student the tools to sing comfortably through the whole range of their voices, with color, beauty and self-confidence.  We also teach the basics of music theory, from key signatures and solfège to modulations and clefs, so that students can continue to learn on their own.  Erik also offers piano/keyboard lessons, with a focus on developing a solid classical technique that can be used as a basis for jazz, pop and musical theatre repertoire.

Lessons are taught in Elk Grove and are structured around a monthly plan, with weekly lessons of 30, 45, or 60 minutes depending on age and the student's level.  Please contact us at caprice_corona@yahoo.com for a trial lesson, or with any questions you might have.  We look forward to hearing from you, and to getting to know the aspiring musicians of our new hometown!
