PROFESSIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS

Recommended by Leading Music Professionals

“Raluca Marinescu is that rare combination of a brilliant singer who can also teach with great effectiveness. I have known her for over 20 years, first as her teacher then as her colleague and friend. Having a beautiful voice herself and with great technique, she strives to bring out the beauty and potential of every one of her students. I highly recommend her to all levels of students.”

Carol Vaness — Metropolitan Opera New York

STUDENT & FAMILY PERSPECTIVES

What Students and Families Say

“Raluca helped me embark on a new path in my life. She instructs with passion and understanding, which only helps elevate my level of learning. Because she believes in my voice and piano abilities, I have been able to challenge myself beyond my comfort zone—which has helped me in other aspects of my life.”

Daniela H.

“Raluca is an amazing teacher. She has helped make learning music approachable and fun and I always look forward to our lessons. She took the time to understand my current skills and challenges and to set goals specific to my needs. I feel that I am held accountable to practice and also that I have flexibility when and where needed. If you are a busy adult who has always wanted to learn music but don't quite know how you'll swing it - Raluca will make it happen. I would recommend her as a teacher to a wide audience from child to adult, beginner to advanced.”
