Hello! I'm Lori
My husband and I recently moved to Oconomowoc and we love “Lake Country.” For the past 35 years, I taught high school choir in the Madison area. In addition, my husband and I have three successful children working in the music industry and on Broadway national tours. I’m here to offer my wealth of knowledge in vocal pedagogy, breathing techniques, classical and musical theater styles, as well as acting through song.
I specialize in teaching healthy singing habits and vocal production to middle school through college level students. Lessons will occur in my Oconomowoc home studio.

Participation in recitals and contests are optional. We will have a recital in May at Our Savior’s Lutheran Church in Oconomowoc. In addition, The Wisconsin School Music Association's Solo and Ensemble Festival is usually in March or April depending on your school district. Participation in
WSMA is through your school district, however, I am happy to help you prepare for it. I am also
happy to assist students in preparing for Honors Choir Auditions, Musical auditions, or any other auditioned event.

Students may need to hire an accompanist for auditions or Solo and Ensemble contests throughout
