Testimonials


“Lizzie Byrne is an inspiration to young singers. She has a professional career as a singer but also is a gifted and motivational teacher. Lessons with Lizzie are always fun and she never fails to teach her students to love the music that they sing.”

Karen Phillips, Head of Music, Farnborough Hill School

 

“I really appreciated and benefitted from Lizzie’s holistic approach to vocal teaching. To her, the voice is just as important as the person and the mind behind it; her teaching philosophy is the exact opposite of ‘one-size-fits-all’. She is very supportive and encouraging of individual, creative interpretation, and goes to astonishing lengths to help her students research and knit together recital material and ideas. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.”

Annabel Fleming Brown, post-graduate student, Royal Holloway, University of London

 

“Lizzie Byrne taught a considerable number of singers at Homerton, and she was always able to get the very best out of them, to inspire them technically and artistically, and to promote their sheer enjoyment of music. Lizzie has an exceptionally wide range of musical sympathies and so it was always possible for her to engage with the students in their own preferred style and idiom.”

John Hopkins, Director of Undergraduate Studies, Faculty of Music, University of Cambridge

 

“Lizzie is a fantastic teacher. During my lessons there is a big focus on technique and vocal exercises and through these I can really see an improvement in my singing. She has also encouraged and helped me to expand my repertoire since starting with her.”

Millie Carden, Royal Northern College of Music

 

“Lizzie corrected the problems I had with my voice within the first two lessons. I was really pleased to benefit from her expertise.”

Stephen Hines, London Philharmonic Choir

 

“I was simply somebody who sang. Lizzie turned me into a singer. Her personalised tuition meant that everything we did was tailored to me, allowing me to take on difficult challenges but really enjoy doing so. Lizzie strives for the best and it makes you want to do so too.”

Jacqueline Howard, University of Cambridge

 

“Lizzie’s expert understanding of the voice and appreciation of each students’ individual style, has allowed me to develop in both vocal confidence and technique.”

Dominic Rogan, Royal Holloway University of London
