"Myron Myers is a teaching artist... He challenges the singer to be educated and then engaged on every level. There is not a bit of artifice about him. Myron is all about the music. Every request he makes as a teacher and every phrase he delivers as an artist is always centered within the infinite respect, understanding and love he has for the music. You feel this when he sings and you understand it when he teaches. It is enveloping and empowering, and it is a great gift."
--Catherine Crotty, 2009 participant

"Thank you again for a rich experience. It was wonderful to meet each of you and to share music with you. Thank you, Myron, for providing guidance, structure, and safety, and for sharing from your storehouses of wisdom and experience. VotM was a great joy and encouragement to me musically and personally." --Jennifer Whiting (2009)

"...my favorite part of the class was the "workshop" aspect, and the trust - and the fun - we had with one another as we worked through our pieces. It was the highlight of my summer." --Anne Rigby (2009)

"...I was afforded the opportunity to not only study the Italian language, but also to refine my skills as a singer in such a way as to afford me the chance to become employable as a professional opera singer in the Italian repertoire. I currently specialize in the opera of Verdi and Puccini, and am expanding into the works of Wagner, and Strauss. I have been engaged to sing Siegmund next year in Hawaii, and Lohengrin in Frankfurt.
I credit my current success ...particularly to Myron Myers, who has somehow managed to teach me everything I need to know to be engaged in the German Theater system as a Fest singer, in spite of my obstinance and ignorance. I am enjoying considerable success in Germany, and owe a great debt to Mr. Myers..."
