References

“The students were in awe of the singers, and loved hearing Zach perform his solo. When their peers sang solos and could see the improvements with small changes, they were amazed. At choir this morning, they all sang with more confidence and better sound. Zach did a great job of addressing middle school fears of singing in front of others. I was really glad he addressed that important issue. This is the second year we used the vocal master class. We will likely do it again and find it to be very valuable for our young singers.”
