Biography

Celebrating it's 10th year as a school, Wickham Vocal studios is proud to announce the upcoming CD/DVD release of its award-winning "Vocal Integration" method for teachers and students (beta version August 1st, 2008)!

Founded in 1998 by voice physiologist and NYSTA board member Patrick Michael Wickham, WVS has grown into one of the most-innovative and successful resources for actors and vocalists. Boasting an impressive affiliate faculty that includes Billy Porter and NYSTA president David Sabella-Mills, WVS continues to offer superior training and performer resources that guarantee not only a better voice, but a solid career path.

WVS is a proud affiliate of the William Esper Studio, and also has locations in North Carolina, Atlanta and Los Angeles (2008) .

Teaching Philosophy

WVS training utilizes the "Vocal Integration" method, a innovative and comprehensive synthesis of six methods that combine the best elements of voice physiology, structural and laryngeal integration, Bel Canto vocalises, acoustics and functional visualization. "If you combined the best of the old master teachers with an SLP, a vocologist and a physical therapist, you'd have Vocal Integration!" - Robert Ossoff, M.D. (Director, Vanderbilt Voice Center)

Studio Policies

Permanent students pay in one-month blocks. Contracts are for three-month periods. All students must undergo an audition and vocal assessment prior to admittance. Students may be referred to other NYSTA-certified teachers. Program results guaranteed (based on compliance).
