The Singer’s Process

What Clients Are Saying…

“Thank you, Lillian, for teaching me so much about singing jazz! And you make the learning fun! Working with you my sound has definitely improved as has my technique, thanks to your warm-up exercises, technique instruction, and phrasing advice. I still write down the lyrics of every song – in longhand before singing; my aim is to visualize the person to whom I am singing to, to tell the story, and to respect the composer and lyricist in the telling.”

Deborah W. - Singer, Attorney San Diego, CA

“I have had the privilege of being a student of Lillian Palmer, and I can confidently say she is an exceptional voice teacher with a wealth of technical knowledge and expertise. Lillian’s warmth and approachable demeanor creates a nurturing environment which allows you to feel comfortable and confident. Lillian genuinely cares for her students’ growth which makes her an exceptional mentor and role model.

Lillian guides her students to develop and improve tone, pitch, and resonance. This has enabled me to expand my range and explore the various colors and textures in my voice. I’ve learned an effective technique to prevent vocal strain and overuse. She has instilled in me the responsibility and care for my overall vocal health.”

Kristie K. - Musician/Singer San Diego, CA

“Whether you’re a student, an avocational singer or a pro, Lillian Palmer can make a huge difference in your vocal technique, and intonation. When people ask me for a recommendation regarding vocal coaching, I always put them in touch with Lillian. A friend who sang for fun and wanted to get some basic vocal fundamentals started studying with Lillian and is now performing with pro musicians at various jazz venues. ”

Holly H. - Musician, Jazz recording artist, Educator San Diego, CA

“Lillian Palmer is the real deal! She has truly taken me to a professional level. Before studying with Lillian, I often felt worn-out after singing for an hour. I had no technique. I’ve been studying for over two-years now, and my voice has developed in ways I never thought possible. I’ve expanded my range, learned control over my voice. I’ve gained confidence as a performer. I keep growing as a singer.”

Dennis G. - Singer, and Electrician San Diego, CA

“I remember my first lesson. I was an hour late, got lost, was terribly nervous, I almost didn’t show. Man am I glad I did!

I sincerely believe that your acceptance of my voice, and that I could get better, plus your encouragement were definite an integral part for me staying as long as I did. Had I known exactly how accomplished a singer you are I would have never crossed your threshold. I learned discipline, something I was majorly lacking. I just wanted to share with you how positively you’ve influenced my life. Thank you!”

Pam W. - Comedienne, Actor San Diego, CA

“I first met Lillian Palmer in the early 90’s. I had just started playing guitar and singing with a band after a few years of musical inactivity, and I was a little rusty and lacking in confidence. I signed on for private vocal lessons, and it really changed my life as a singer.

I learned about pitch control, and how to move my vocal center around (from chest to head voice), to comfortably extend my vocal range without straining my voice. Working with Lillian gave me a renewed sense of confidence, which has translated to decades of success as a guitarist/singer in several successful local bands.

I am grateful for my association with Lillian, as she has been a supportive friend and confidant for all these years.”

Tim E. - Guitarist, Singer San Diego, CA

“For years I played guitar casually, but once I sang people left the room. I was fortunate enough to be introduced to Lillian Palmer and after a relatively short amount of time working with her, people began to compliment my voice. Lillian hones in on the mechanics of her students' singing and has a gift for developing tone and resonance.”
