Attending
one of Susan Gregorys workshops is like learning to live in grace
and harmony with oneself and ones environment. She helps participants
learn about breath, voice, sound and vocal impact in the field in a
profound and elegant way. Refreshing, renewing and reverberating, one
comes away loving life a little more. I believe that
I have acquired confidence and liberation to dance with greater power and
joy; and I have become more confident within my relationships. In thirty years
of professional performance, I have never experienced the creative growth
and vocal security that I have achieved with Susan Gregory. Susan has helped
me understand my own learning style and to work with it without fear or shame.
Each week is a joyous exploration of not only music but the creative process
itself. When I work
with Susan, she is so present and so attentive to my singing that I cannot
help but learn something each timeabout myself, about music, and
about life itself. After Susan helped
me overcome the loss of desire to sing in the aftermath of 9/11, I was able
to use my singing to regain optimism and the joy of life. Susans safe, supportive
approach reshaped the way I experience myself and my voice. Susan Gregory
is a remarkable teacher. She approaches each singer individually and customizes
her style to match the student. She helped me develop a roundness and richness
of tone, a more seamless voice, and an approach to musical style that comes
from withinthings I had been searching for my entire career. Susans physical/mental
approach to singing has made me more aware of the expansive potential of my
body and mind as I strive to achieve richer tone and more natural expression
of the poetry that is found in music. I am now able
to sing well the music I longed to sing all my life. Her diagnostics are always right on the dot and her vocal remedies really work. But what I appreciate most is her open, patient, generous capacity to hear and observe the student. Paule Ollman, translator Truly a teacher
