12 Singing coaches & instructors for lessons in Duarte, CA

Pop. Rock. R&B. Jazz. Musical Theatre. And every song on the request list at one of the hottest piano bars in Los Angeles. I'm David Jayden Anthony — and before I tell you about my degrees, let me tell you about where I honed my skills as a commercial music performer: Tramp Stamp Granny's, Darren Criss' legendary North Hollywood piano bar. Every genre. Any song. Any key. On demand. That's the kind of real-world musical flexibility I bring into every lesson. My credentials: a Bachelor's in Songwriting & Music Production from Berklee College of Music (studying under Grammy Award-winning artists in lyric writing, composition, production, and mixing), and a Master's in Musical Theatre Writing from Berklee's NYC campus — where I studied with Broadway legends Lynn Ahrens, Stephen Flaherty, Adam Gwon, and Michael Starobin. Before Orange County School of the Arts had a commercial music program, I built one from scratch — teaching Pop, Rock, Jazz, and R&B, writing original arrangements, and directing concerts for audiences of 2,000+. My students call me 'The Auto-Mechanic of the Voice' — because I diagnose fast and fix faster. I make abstract vocal concepts tangible. I help you understand text and storytelling at a level that transforms your performances — not just your technique. Whether you're a pop singer pushing too hard, a musical theatre performer hunting for the perfect audition song, or a songwriter who wants to finally record something extraordinary, I will move you faster than you thought possible. YES — you can use acting and storytelling technique to create brilliant pop and commercial music performances. That's not a theory. That's what I teach, every session. Rapid results. Real technique. Commercial music first, Broadway when you need it. SuperCoach — Top 3% on TeachMe.to. 5.0 rating. 30 years of teaching, performing, music-directing, and writing. Let's get to work.

"The lesson was quite thorough, with David exploring many techniques, and I appreciated how invested he was in helping me find my voice and achieve a breakthrough. Still, I think continuing to balance and control my own voice will be important moving forward. I’ll definitely look to return for the next lesson, since that lesson really highlighted his attention to detail and genuine commitment.

I’m Sangina Sharipova — a professional recording artist and vocal coach based in Los Angeles. With over 15 years of professional performance experience and 5+ years of teaching, I work with singers who expect precision, depth, and results. I hold a Professional Diploma from Musicians Institute (LA) and was a Finalist of X-Factor and The Voice. My career includes performances on major international stages such as the United Nations Headquarters, the Kremlin Palace, and leading venues across Europe, Asia, and the United States. Alongside performing, I actively release original music and work in the studio as a recording artist and songwriter. I coach artists, public figures, and high-level performers, including clients with multi-million audiences, as well as professionals preparing for recordings, auditions, tours, and high-pressure performances. My work is focused on: • refined vocal control and consistency • effortless high notes and vocal freedom • stylistic clarity and individuality • stamina for studio and live performance • confidence under pressure My method combines modern vocal technique, blues and soul-based vocal approaches, contemporary pop/R&B aesthetics, vocal health, and performance psychology. Each session is fully individualized and strategically structured — no generic exercises, no shortcuts. This is a space for singers who are serious about their craft and ready to elevate their voice to a professional standard.

"I came to Sangina with a clear goal: to prepare a song for recording. I had performed professionally as a singer in the past, but after a long break and relocation, I felt out of vocal shape and unsure about my voice. After working together for three months, we restored my vocal form, rebuilt technique, and brought back confidence. I was able to record my song successfully, feeling stable, prepared, and connected to my voice again. What stood out to me was Sangina’s ability to understand exactly what my voice needed after a pause. Step by step, the tension disappeared, control returned, and singing started to feel natural again. Beyond technique, these lessons helped me regain confidence and motivation to sing and continue developing my artistic career. I didn’t just get my voice back — I found the desire to grow as an artist again.
