why this studio exists

You can get a long way on your own. YouTube, tabs, singing in the car. Then you stall. You can't tell what's wrong. You just know it stopped getting better. That's the part a teacher is for. We hear what you can't hear yet. And both of us have been stuck exactly where you are.

Lessons

What do you want to learn?

Voice is what we teach most, and both of us teach it. Anthony also takes guitar, Rachel also takes piano.

Voice

Anthony · Rachel · all levels

The one we both teach, sometimes together in the same lesson. Technique, songs you pick, audition prep when you want it. Breathing first, because everything else sits on top of it.

Teachers

Just the two of us

One of us came up through theater, the other through a music degree in Nashville. Between us that covers most of what people walk in wanting to sing.

Anthony Edward

Voice · Guitar · co-founder

Anthony is a working actor and singer, a tenor, mostly in musicals. Thirty-one productions and 270-some performances since 2022, among them Prince Charming, a pirate-chasing Sergeant of Police, Footloose's Chuck Cranston, and Orin, the Little Shop of Horrors Dentist.

His first degree was computer science, class of 2022. Music won: he went back for a Bachelor's in Vocal Performance at the University of Akron, where he's trained three years with Dr. Frank Ward. This spring he directed Blood Brothers on the same stage this studio calls home.

He couldn't sing when he started. That's the part he brings to lessons: he remembers the wall from your side of it. The teaching is technique first, because technique is what got him over.

Rachel Caniglia

Voice · Piano · co-founder

Rachel graduated from Nashville's Belmont University in 2022 with a BA in Music: Commercial Voice, with an emphasis in Music Business. Two years of classical technique with Professor Rebekah Alexander, then two of commercial voice with Professor Sandra Dudley, which means all kinds of styles. Mostly jazz, plus pop, rock, screamo, musical theatre, and country.

She sang with The Belles, Belmont's premiere a cappella group, as vocal percussionist, and with Chamber Singers, an ensemble that rehearsed with nothing but A440 tuning forks: accountability, precision, and a seriously trained ear.

This fall she begins her Masters in Vocal Performance at the University of Akron through a graduate assistantship. Rachel is ecstatic to be teaching collaborative voice lessons with Anthony at the Blue Macaroon Theatre, and wants to give you the tools to show your unique instrument to the world.

The studio

A real stage to learn on

Lessons happen at the Blue Macaroon Theater in Doylestown: a working community theater with a stage, a piano, and room to be loud. Most people practice in a bedroom and freeze on a stage. Our students learn on the stage from day one.

The stage. Pictures to come.

The piano. Pictures to come.

The house. Pictures to come.
