Voice Lessons & Vocal Coaching
Voice Lessons & Vocal Coaching
Julian Morris, a NYC-based professional singer and teacher, offers lessons for students of all ages and skill levels, both in-person in New York City and online to students around the world.
Lessons are designed to help singers discover their individual sound and sing with confidence. Students learn in a supportive, safe environment and receive guidance on selecting repertoire, developing musicianship skills, and adopting effective practice habits.
All musical styles are welcome!
A strong, expressive, and reliable voice is the backbone of great singing. My coaching blends proven technique with musicality, helping you build a voice that feels as good as it sounds.
Clients often come to me looking to:
Expand their range and vocal stamina
Smooth out transitions and find consistency across registers
Get rid of strain, tension, or fatigue
Improve tone, flexibility, and resonance
Bring more nuance and authenticity to their interpretation
Get ready for auditions, performances, or studio work
Sessions are tailored, focused, and results-driven, but always encouraging. I work with professional singers, actors, hobbyists, and anyone in between!

Julian has taken a complete non-singer, me, and through encouragement, humor, skill and patience shown that we all have a voice (however off key!). He is an excellent teacher. I highly recommend him to anyone who has an interest in singing.

Never had any singing experience before coming to Julian. Once I had my first session with him it was evident that he was the right guy to help me not only fine tune my voice but help me navigate my singing journey. Extremely passionate and dedicated to his craft, he understands and thoroughly explains the power of the voice and helps u achieve ur goals!

If you're looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate voice teacher in New York, I highly recommend Julian. We are incredibly grateful to have found him. Julian has a deep understanding of many musical styles and takes a personalized approach to teaching. He emphasizes key fundamentals like breath control, vocal health, musicality, and music theory, which have made a big impact on my child's growth as a singer. When we started lessons, my child had very little vocal training. Thanks to Julian’s guidance and support, they were accepted into a highly competitive summer arts program in just a few months. He was there for us every step of the way, offering thoughtful feedback and encouragement. Julian creates a positive and welcoming environment where students feel supported and inspired. My child genuinely looks forward to every session and has grown both musically and personally. We’ve had such a positive experience working with Julian. He is a dedicated and talented teacher who truly cares about his students.

I've been working with Julian for a month and have already improved so much in my confidence and singing ability! Julian encourages me to record our lessons, and I've noticed great improvements from listening to these recordings. I walk away from each lesson feeling more confident about my abilities and potential , while also having concrete steps for how to continue improving. Thank you so much for your help!

Julian is incredible! I started seeing Julian a few months ago to work on my singing and it has been a great experience. He is extremely knowledgeable and provides great critiques while also providing a fun experience. Would highly recommend anyone in the NYC area to go to Julian for voice lessons.
As Your Voice Teacher, I Provide:
Resources to help you develop healthy vocal technique
I work with my students to build their vocal technique from day one. We are the stewards of our voices, and I believe we should all aim to use them as well as we can.
A supportive, welcoming learning environment
Singing can be vulnerable, and starting voice lessons can be intimidating! I always make sure my students feel comfortable, seen, and heard. I want this to be a collaborative effort, always.
Engaging, enjoyable repertoire
Regardless of their goals or skill level, I want voice study to be an enjoyable process for all! I work with my students to find music they enjoy working on — music that also helps them progress toward their goals.
I also work with students on other subjects, including:
-
sight singing (sight reading)
-
ear training and musicianship
-
music theory
-
music notation
What Happens When We Start Working Together?
-
Assess current level and skills.
I want to meet every student where they are, whether you're already a working professional singer or just starting to sing for the first time. -
Determine short-term and long-term goals.
There are no right or wrong answers here. Singers take voice lessons for many different reasons! For some, it’s for pure enjoyment; for others, it’s part of a career path in performance or music education. -
Practice vocal exercises to develop healthy technique.
Most lessons include dedicated time for warmups and exercises tailored to your goals and needs. -
Select repertoire based on goals.
I work with singers to choose music they enjoy and that suits their vocal range and development. -
Seek out appropriate audition and performance opportunities.
For some, this might mean joining a local choir. For others, it could involve auditioning for university programs or professional gigs. And if performance isn’t your goal, that’s perfectly fine, too!
My Studio Location
My studio is located at 2121 Broadway. Your voice lesson will take place in a comfortable, spacious room equipped with mirrors, chairs, and a piano.
We’re just blocks away from Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts and the Met. Many of my students take the subway to the nearby Broadway stop, or simply walk if they're local.
If you have any questions about the studio location or how to get here, feel free to reach out.

More About Lessons with Julian
Finding Your Best Sound
No matter what style you sing – pop, musical theatre, jazz, opera, country – the foundation is always the same: a clear, beautiful tone you feel confident in. We’ll focus on building a strong, expressive sound that feels authentic to you and works across any genre.
Becoming a Well-Rounded Musician
Singing isn’t just about the voice: it’s about understanding music, too. We can work on reading music, recognizing rhythms, understanding key signatures, and even dip into music theory basics if you’re curious. It all helps you become a stronger, more independent musician.
Building Technique & Agility
Whether you’re aiming for clean vocal runs, belting with power, or tackling challenging classical pieces, we’ll work on expanding your technique without losing sight of the fundamentals. You don’t need to be a “vocal gymnast,” but having more tools in your toolbox will give you flexibility and confidence.
Choosing the Right Songs
I love helping students find music that feels exciting and right for their voice. Whether it’s something you’ve always wanted to sing or a hidden gem I recommend, we’ll explore a mix of styles and make sure your repertoire supports your growth and helps you shine.
Bringing Music to Life
Once the notes and rhythms are solid, we’ll work on bringing your songs to life, playing with dynamics, articulation, phrasing, and storytelling. If you’re singing in another language, I’ll guide you through pronunciation and help you connect emotionally with the text.
Getting Ready for Performances
Have an audition, recital, or show coming up? We can focus your lessons on performance prep: mock runs, memorization strategies, breathing techniques for nerves, and more. I’ll share everything I’ve learned from years of performing to help you feel prepared and grounded.
