"Vera is an extraordinary singer and musician! She has an absolutely beautiful tone quality, combined with honest and moving emotional connection to text. While Vera is an enormously creative person and fabulous singer, she is ALSO an extraordinary voice teacher. Her teaching style is articulate, engaging, and both nurturing and challenging. I highly recommend Vera as a singer and teacher!" --MaryJean Allen ~ co-author What Every Singer Needs to Know About the Body, 4th edition 2020, Plural Publishing.
