Dear Students,

As yet another school year and performance season approaches, it is time to confirm voice lesson times for the fall. When you receive this letter, please contact me (314-963-0006 OR 314-265-0922) to confirm your already existing time slot, or to schedule a new lesson time.

My teaching days for 2010-2011 include Monday through Friday with times available in the morning, afternoon, and evening. Saturday morning lesson times are also available.

My studio is set up on a semester basis (17 weeks) with tuition due at the first lesson of each semester or payable in three installments over the first three months. The tuition includes the recital fee for the semester. For more details, please see the studio policy statement

There are two recitals scheduled for fall and spring. These will take place at the Steinway Piano Gallery in Maryland Heights (please see policies for more information).

I welcome back returning students and look forward to working with newcomers. The voice is an amazing instrument -- the only one which combines both music and words. Learning to use your voice at its highest level is a challenging and supremely fulfilling endeavor, and one well worth the effort.

Professionally in the past year I have taken advantage of the opportunities for continuing education in the great city of New York. I participated in a five-day Fitzmaurice Voicework workshop with master teacher and Shakespearean actress Catherine Fitzmaurice, and I also took private voice lessons with renowned voice teacher Jeannette LoVetri. Locally most of you are now familiar with the new addition to my studio: a beautiful Boston grand piano.

I hope you have enjoyed a grand summer, and I look forward to seeing you again very soon.

Sincerely,

Rosemarie Cereghino
