Ian Campbell, GM & Artistic Director | San Diego Opera
In an electronically-connected world, performers whose professional lives can keep them on the road for months at a time can learn a lot from Adria Firestone about how to keep their integrity and sanity intact while sharpening their entrepreneurial instincts, building their brand, strengthening their performance skills and deepening their artistic impact.
George Heymont, San Francisco Arts Critic | Huffington Post
Your class was wonderful, as was the recital. I think the most exciting thing is that the kids were talking so much about why they sing and what is important about singing for folks. They were really jazzed by your performance and by your discussion in the master class
Susan Dunn, Professor of Voice | Duke University
How to express the remarkable impact you have made on the students during your visit here... the total honesty you displayed during your master class presentations. Students were honored that you spoke candidly and lovingly embraced them, not speaking down to them or negatively criticizing them. We were inspired by your enthusiasm for living, by your musical insights, by your wisdom, by your willingness to share and your thirst for knowledge. We all enthusiastically anticipate your next visit.
Donald Hartmann, DMA Professor of Music | Eastern Michigan University
You were a total success. Our students were inspired and enlightened by your wealth of knowledge. I, personally, saw the difference in my own voice studio as my students began to practice more and became more intense with their vocal studies. This is why we would like to extend you another invitation to be with us for several days of teaching singing and acting.
