Voice and Singing Lessons in Murrieta, CA

     Our son has been taking lessons for the voice and singing here in Murrieta for just about one year.  He turned 16 during that time, and the voice is doing what you would expect it to do: changing.  The choir director for the powerful community college choir here told me this is called "vox cambiata."  Pardon if I haven't spelled it properly.  I asked him for a voice or singing coach closer to me (he is 20 minutes one way in Temecula).

     He recommended Mr. Brian Boos, the Choir Director for Thompson Middle School which is a half mile from our home on the west side of Murrieta, for private singing voice lessons, and we've been going weekly ever since.  I sit in and listen because it's fascinating to watch the mastery and coaching that goes on in each session.  My discovery: the voice and the human body are a musical instrument that a master coach can teach, along with plenty of work by the student outside of the singing or voice lessons.  Just last week, Mr. Boos gave our son this "crazy" voice exercise - Mr. Boos is not shy to demonstrate the craziness, so the student feels comfortable going outside his comfort zone! - and immediately after, my son's version of the song they were working on was Extremely improved.  I had to capitalize Extremely, it was so much better!

     Here is some of Mr. Boos' resume':

     "Mr. Boos is a Cal State University of Long Beach graduate with a Bachelor's Degree in Vocal Music with an Opera emphasis. He has studied under instructors such as Dr. Charles Edward Lindsley, Ms. Josephine Lott, and Maestro Michael Carson, head of the apprenticeship program for the New York Metropolitan Opera.  In addition, Mr. Boos studied string bass for many years under John Shiavo of the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra.

     "Mr. Boos has an impressive performance career including with the Los Angeles Music Center Opera, Opera Pacific of Orange County, the Long Beach Grand Opera, the Inland Valley Symphony, and "Jekyll and Hyde" and "The Secret Garden" with the Old Town Temecula Theater Group.  He was the bass soloist at the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove, principle string-bassist with the CSULA Music Conservatory and the Los Angeles Jr. Philharmonic Orchestra, and has worked as a studio musician in both vocal and instrumental music in the Los Angeles area.  His 'most prized accomplishment is having performed twice as a soloist for Her Majesty, Queen Sirikit of Thailand.'"

     What the biography doesn't tell you is how engaging he is in person, how perceptive he is about what a child's voice needs to turn it into a singing instrument.  Our son has made leaps and bounds of progress under Mr. Boos' tutelage, and for that I am grateful.

     You can call Mr. Boos to set up singing voice lessons in Murrieta, CA, at 951-696-9590.  Please let him know how you found him.

Lisa,

I loved your post so much that I decided to re-blog it. I am also a singer and was happy to share your information with my circle of influence. I'll have to look Mr. Boos up for a lesson when I am out in Murrieta next. Thanks again for the inspiring post!
