"It's thrilling to discover how much more of my voice I can explore with Jane guiding me. After fifty years of singing professionally,I'm freshly motivated by her enthusiasm, her perceptive observations and huge inventory of skills!"

     --Beth Fowler, Tony Nominee

"My voice always feels strong and effortless after I finish a lesson with Jane. Her knowledge of music has helped me build my repertoire, which has left me more than prepared for auditions."
