As an actor who has been on Broadway in two principal roles and several tours, I can say without doubt that the selection of a voice teacher is one of the trickiest challenges a young performer faces. Singing is not just about the physical conditioning of the voice, but about the psychology of unlocking one s soul. There are teachers out there that polish already talented professionals without adding anything substantial to their training. There are teachers out there that break the singer down in an attempt to build them up. There are magical technicians that boast a miracle cure for the voice. I have had all of the above and more and only found frustration. And then I found Patrick Michael Wickham. There is simply no one out there more caring, knowledgable and effective for the human singing voice. He is an absolute MUST-HAVE for anyone who wants to succeed as a professional vocalist. If you study with another teacher, add him to your roster (he works well WITH other teachers). If you have vocal issues you think will never go away, call him immediately. I cannot emphasize enough (and again, I am a very seasoned pro) that this man and this program deliver everything and much more than promised.
