Studying at York Singing Academy has transformed my voice. It has not only resulted in a radical improvement in technique and interpretation since my initial lessons, but continues to progress markedly from performance to performance. This has resulted in a thoroughly enjoyable and motivating process of improvement which goes on between lessons themselves as well as within them.

My training under your tutelage brought forth a long and continuous journey into the world of opera. Many things have been made possible because of the lessons I sought with you; the placement at the Royal Scottish Conservatoire, my debuts as a principal artist at ENO, Scottish Opera, and European opera houses, and now, students of my own!

My training at the De Costa Academy of Singing gave me a rock solid foundation for my professional singing career. With 8+ hours of professional singing every week I’ve never had a moment's concern that my voice or vocal technique will let me down.

The Academy has always been a place where one can learn in a relaxed, friendly environment, and yet come away from a lesson feeling that you have had a good 'work-out' (and with reduced stress levels)! I have gained the confidence to take part in Masterclasses, and perform in recitals in the UK and abroad.

I am beyond grateful to Michael, Val and Matthew for the care, support and training that was given to Dan over 4 years at the Academy. He could not sing a note in tune when he started and now he is about to start a 3-year degree in musical theatre! You developed his talent, opened doors and he knew you all genuinely cared about him. Thank you so much.

Singing is a wonderful hobby! With Val as tutor and Matthew as pianist, lessons are challenging but also a lot of fun. Although I practised with a number of singing teachers in London for over 15 years, I only wish that I’d had a teacher as good as Val from the very beginning.
