Clare offers voice and instrument lessons for adults and children at her Laurel Canyon Rock School studio.
Voice sessions focus on songs while using a proven technique that gives you maximum power without strain. This technique helps develop a 'middle' voice between registers, allowing you to sing with greater range and with no breaks. You will improve your ability to maintain an even and strong balance through your bridges and you will gain more strength and presence in your upper register. You will also discover and develop new colors and vocal stylings in your voice. This technique works wonders with all genres of music.
In the first session, Clare evaluates your voice to design a dynamic and customized program. Work on exercises will improve your range, pitch, tone and strength and is applied to working on original or cover songs. Performance skills and conveying true feeling to the audience are also important elements covered. This is a valuable stand-alone lesson as well as an introduction to Clare and her technique.
Instrument sessions have a modern approach using chord and improvisation techniques which allow musicians to quickly enjoy playing songs they love. Sessions also incorporate traditional reading and theory in all styles of music.

WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING -
VOICE
If you are truly serious about your voice, and about singing as well as you possibly can, then contact Clare Diane. In 20+ years of singing, no one has ever helped me to attain anything close to what I've accomplished with her. My range, power, pitch... All have improved well beyond what I'd thought was possible, and it happened under her guidance. - Jason Kothmann - Interstelar, Guitarist/Singer/Songwriter https://soundcloud.com/the-pooch/hold-it Clare Diane has been amazing. She can clearly hear and see what I need to do in order to improve my vocals and my performance skills. She is constantly playing gigs, so she not only talks the talk, but walks the walk. She invests in you and really cares about helping you. I wouldn’t trade her for any other coach. -Karina Lissi-Du Bois http://www.karinalissidubois.com Hi Clare! Can't thank you enough for helping with Cori. She went in so confident in what she had prepared and it was all because of you. Saturday is the FINAL audition- they have said she is up for the role of Katie the bass player. She's going to a vocal coach here in NYC to polish up today. You will be one of the first to know when we hear anything. Thanks again and we owe you big time!.....Felt like we were cheating on you but as soon as she was done, he wanted to know who her vocal coach was in LA! Thanks and fingers crossed....She did it! Just got an offer to join the ensemble for School of Rock the Musical on Broadway! Will also understudy the Bass player character Katie! Thanks again for all of your help Simply put, Clare Diane is a fabulous vocal coach. In a few sessions, she helped me to transform my voice. She hones in on who you are, why you want to sing, and then helps you to discover how to do it. More than an instructor, Clare is a guide. I can't praise her enough. -Nadav Serling, Percussionist and Songwriter Working with Clare Diane has helped me restore my confidence in my ability to create beauty with my voice. Through her keen understanding and appreciation of music and voice she helped guide and focus my abilities with exercises that expand range and power; insights into how to use my voice to reach its potential according to my personal singing style; exercises and meditations to break through the feeling that I've reached a trouble spot. I have seen a dramatic improvement in just a few sessions and look forward to seeing where my continued work with her will take me, as it has already brought me beyond what I thought I could achieve. -Aviva Eliana, Singer/Songwriter Thanks Clare for a wonderful experience. I've learned a great deal from you in a short amount of time. You've helped me a great deal on my vowels, pitch and transitions, but most of all, my performances. I rehearse all the time with your lessons in mind and in turn, I am more connected to the material. Thanks again Clare, you made my stage time more enjoyable! Jon |
INSTRUMENTS
My son has learned soooo much in just 3 guitar lessons. Clare Diane is the best! Alison Benjamin had such a great session with you last Friday. He was on such a high and was practicing all weekend on the piano. Thank you for starting him on this path. He is truly happy. All weekend, he kept gravitating towards the piano……You are wonderful with Benjamin. And I really appreciate the kindness, support and encouragement you give him. He loves his lessons with you and he is so thrilled to be part of the band. That in itself is worth its weight in gold. So thank YOU! Sara Thanks, Clare, for your gift teaching music! :) Ben Thanks for making it happen. You're a great teacher and i had a lot of fun! Zander Thank you so much for your fierce dedication and energy Clare! Schuyler We wanted to tell you once again what a GREAT time Alec had working with you, Thanks ever so much! Diane Luc - I just wanted to send you a quick email thanking you for your audition submission and welcoming you to the JH Jazz Program! Your piano playing on your audition was super. We loved hearing your original piece along with your scales and comping. You are such a versatile musician, so I know you'll have a blast in the jazz program. -Campbell Hall Junior High This is Marina...thank you so much for everything you taught me!! I'm still playing guitar and you hold a special place in my heart :)) Thank you! She loves to sing and that's what I'd like her to do! You can't really find singing classes the way you can get piano classes and this is a great way to do it! She now of course wants a microphone for Christmas! Clarissa Sam saw the kids play as a band this last week and that’s what got him so excited about it. In the interim, my two have started fighting over who gets to practice the piano!! thats a real change :) Beth Clare - that's great about the Maverick project. Thanks so much for creating so many fantastic opportunities for our girls. You are one of a kind. Schuyler Charlie woke me up at 6.45 am playing Sweet Home Alabama on his violin! I said great but please, no violin before 7 :) Thanks for the inspiration! Beth IF YOU'D LIKE TO SPEAK TO ANY STUDENTS ABOUT THEIR EXPERIENCES, LET ME KNOW. |
