From the start she was warm, friendly and professional. She put me at ease and gave me various exercises to help me hit those high notes. Eventually I talked the whole quartet into giving it a try and we enjoyed ourselves and learned a lot. If you’re looking for someone who can help you improve no matter your current skill level, give Carolyn a call!”
