“I have been a student of Charlotte Surkin’s for several years. While I have studied under multiple teachers, I made leaps of progress under Charlotte’s tutelage in terms of vocal health, diction, tone, and style in both classical and contemporary repertoire. She welcomes my curiosity regarding technique and new material and always has great ideas for new things to work on if I am unsure what to do next. Charlotte works well with multiple voice types and skill levels whether you’re a beginner or a well-seasoned vocalist. I am grateful to have found her and plan to continue with her studio for years to come!”
“It has been my privilege to know and to teach alongside of Charlotte Surkin in an association that spans two decades. She is a master teacher in the field with a broad base of knowledge and an innate ability to free the instrument and then help to refine it. A true professional and a compassionate and engaging human being.”
“Charlotte has been such a vital part of my development as a performer and a person. Charlotte is very knowledgeable about the body and I always feel confident that she is guiding me towards producing a safe, healthy sound. My range and vocal quality has improved so much over the past 5+ years of working with Charlotte. She’s always extremely supportive of me, not just when it comes to my performance, but also professionally and personally. I could not recommend her enough!”
