Located in the heart of Astoria, NY (off the N/Q Broadway stop), MCT Vocal Studio is extremely convenient and flexible to the working artist, but our student roster ranges from High School and College students to established musicians and Broadway professionals. Further, MCT Vocal Studio specializes in the not-so-fabled actors who can't/won't sing.

Be prepared to answer the following questions:
- What's in your book now (or have worked on significantly in the past)?
- What do you think your type is? What do others think it is? What's your voice type?
- What vocal issue have you been working on in lessons previously, in school or other?
- What do you think is missing from you book, in terms of type of song(s)?
- What would you like to see yourself improve on, short-term/long-term?

You can also follow us on Twitter (@MTRepCoach) and Facebook for Audition and Repertoire musings.

Looking forward to hearing from you!
