“Valerie
Fahren is hands down the best voice teacher I have ever worked
with. For the first few years I was in Los Angeles, I floated
from teacher to teacher and never saw much of an improvement.
Within weeks of studying with Valerie, I saw fantastic gains and my
voice felt better than ever. It was such a huge relief to
find omeone who actually knew what they were doing. My voice
is very important to me and since it is such a delicate instrument.
It’s essential that I work with someone as caring
as
Valerie.” |

“Valerie’s technique is unsurpassed!!! Since
I started studying with her, my voice has become stronger,
clearer, rangier. I have control and confidence that I never had
before. I was a Shirley Partridge finalist for the VH1 series In Search
of the Partridge Family, beating out thousands of women
nationwide for the role. I just starred as Polly Peachum in a
Critic’s Choice sold out run of The Threepenny Opera. And now
I’m the first soprano for an amazing jazz group, Crescendo ()
who’s recording and touring the world and gigging all over
Los Angeles. Val’s a talented singer and dedicated,
supportive teacher and all around great person and friend.” |
“Val worked with me from start to success, working bit by bit and adding each new part as I learned the last, just like it should be. I worked with Valerie 2-3 times per week and within the shortest period of time I booked more shows than I could handle, including Broadway shows, booked all the way from LA! In short, the sky was the limit, and anyone who hears of me learns to quickly associates me with great singing. I really do owe her so much for her help.”
Miles Alden, Bobby C, Saturday Night Fever
 I am a great singer! I can say
that now thanks to my vocal coach
Valerie Fahren. I have been on Broadway, on tour and am
currently
in a hit show here in LA… but it is only since
I’ve
been working with Valerie that I’ve truly begun to
find my
voice. I’m what one might call a reluctant singer…
if that
makes sense. I’ve loved to sing for years, but never had any
real
confidence in my ability. Since working with Valerie I have a
new
found certainty in myself and my ability… which, in and of
itself, makes a difference in vocal quality. In my two months
as
her student, I have increased my range, improved my breathing and
stamina and have learned techniques that have kept me vocally healthy
through colds and vocal exhaustion. It would be worth it to
study
with her for those reasons alone, but the other fabulous thing about
Valerie is her heart. She cares so much about her students and is
committed to our growth and success. You can feel it in your very first
lesson… there a safe place that she provides so that you can
soar as an artist. I have complete confidence knowing that I am
studying with a master who has my best interests at heart.I am reminded of a quote that sums up Valerie and who she is for me. “There comes that mysterious meeting in life when someone acknowledges who we are and what we can become, igniting the circuits of our highest potential.” - Rusty Burkes Thank you Valerie for showing me my potential and being a source of encouragement and inspiration as you guide me on my path to extreme fierceness!! Nayo Wallace The Lion King, Broadway National Tour, Lead |

The
results I have gotten with Valerie are nothing short of
amazing.
Just ask the people who knew me 4 years ago when I didn’t
sing a
note. Now, I’m singing opera, and constantly being
asked to
sing at events. After one event last year, one woman demanded that I
record an album so she could buy it! And after singing in my acting
class recently, my acting teacher (a professional singer for
more than 30 years) said that the
change in my voice in two years is
“extraordinary.” Johnny Ferretti |
