Have you ever felt the urge to sing, to express yourself through melody, or simply to explore the potential of your own voice? Right here in our vibrant city of New Westminster, Melanie Adams, owner of Adams Voice Studio, is helping people of all ages and abilities unlock their vocal potential. From youngsters as young as five to enthusiastic octogenarians, Melanie's studio welcomes everyone with a desire to learn and grow musically.
Melanie's journey to establishing Adams Voice Studio is a testament to her passion for music and her connection to the community. After completing her Master's degree in music with a specialization in vocal performance at McGill and moving to the West Coast, Melanie quickly became involved in Vancouver's rich choral scene, singing with the Vancouver Chamber Choir and Musica Intima. Upon moving to New Westminster in 2003, she established her home studio and, seeking the flexibility of working for herself after the birth of her first child, Adams Voice Studio was officially born.
Melanie offers a comprehensive approach to voice lessons, encompassing singing techniques, music theory, and musicianship. Whether you or your child have dreams of performing on stage, wish to improve your choral singing, prepare for auditions at institutions like Douglas College or UBC, or simply want to enjoy the personal fulfillment that comes with singing, Adams Voice Studio provides tailored guidance. Melanie works with a diverse range of musical interests, from classical and musical theatre to pop and even helping singers with their choral repertoire.
What truly shines through in speaking with Melanie is her genuine joy in witnessing her students' progress. She firmly believes that with consistent effort, everyone can improve their singing, and it's incredibly rewarding for her to see their confidence blossom alongside their vocal abilities. She even holds recitals, including a special "performance party" just for her adult students, providing valuable opportunities to share their hard work in a supportive environment. As Melanie notes, many adults come to her with past experiences where they were discouraged from singing, making their progress and newfound confidence all the more meaningful.
Running a home-based business allows Melanie the flexibility she values, and it also contributes to the unique charm of Adams Voice Studio. While she acknowledges that sometimes home-based arts businesses aren't always taken as seriously as others, her dedication and the success of her students speak volumes.
