Teaching
Donna Deussen is also a private vocal coach. You can learn the basics of proper vocal technique – breathing, placement, tone, intonation/pitch, diction, and interpretation – in a fun and non-stressful environment. Build your repertoire of pop, rock, country, r&b, musical theater, and jazz genres. Learn vocal exercises that will build muscle memory so that technique becomes second nature. Ages 10-adult, from beginners to advanced students who just want a refresher.
STUDENT COMMENTS/RECOMMENDATIONS:
“After having a total thyroidectomy, my voice needed professional help. Donna’s recommended exercises have helped me a lot. She is a lovely person and I was struck by her genuine desire to help me reach my goals. I enjoy working with her very much and would highly recommend her expertise to anyone, no matter what their level. I am not a novice, and find her professional experience to be a blessing.”

"In addition to being an amazing singer, Donna Deussen is an incredible teacher. Her creativity and musical intuition were exactly what I needed when recording my last album. Donna was able to bring out the "country flavor" in my music and helped me personalize my songs through creative licks and melodic alternatives. She helps guide her students through whatever project they may be working on, all the while exhibiting a wonderful blend of patience and encouragement. Any singer would be lucky to work with such a talented teacher!"
