Singing Lessons Cost

• Voice lessons usually cost from $10-$35 for a half-hour lesson in most areas. However, professional-level instructors may charge as much as $100-$200 or more an hour, depending on their expertise and reputation. Typically beginners start with half-hour sessions, although they can be 45 minutes or an hour, depending on the teacher's preference. Some teachers or music schools provide a free initial consultation to determine your current singing range and potential; others may charge $10-$40 or more for this service. Generally, lessons are paid for in advance, at the first of every month.
• ExpertVillage.com provides a library of free online voice videos[1] .

• Lessons are usually held once a week, although advanced students may work with their teacher three times or more each week. A teacher is often primarily a voice technique teacher, who teaches you how to sing, or mainly a voice coach, who shows you what to sing to take best advantage of your voice.
• A typical lesson will include warm-up exercises, feedback on your singing style and skills, technical practice and singing song selections of your choice. Many teachers will play piano as you perform or at least pick out the notes for you on a piano. Generally, the goals are to help you develop tone, pitch, breath control, intonation, emphasis, volume, posture, relaxation and voice quality. TheLiveHouse.com.au outlines what happens during singing lessons.
• It's extremely important to find a good voice teacher and to ask about an instructor's training and background, because poor instruction or incorrect practice can actually ruin your voice. Singing should never hurt.

• Expect to spend $50-$150 or more each year on music books and sheet music.
• Participating in recitals, competitions or other performances may include fees of $2-$25 for informal activities and $30-$200 or more for larger or more prestigious events.

• College and university students may offer lessons at a low or reduced rate; check with your local campus.

• The Music Teachers National Association[2] provides a brochure about choosing a teacher for your child, plus a link to search for certified music teachers in your area.
• Ask for recommendations from local music stores, or your local school or church choir director. Search for teachers at the National Association of Teachers of Singing and The Music Teachers List[3] .
