COACHING
I work with singers of all levels and each lesson is catered to your specific needs. Sessions will include warm-up and vocal technique as needed with a focus on strengthening a personal connection to the material in order to bring about the freest, most grounded performance possible. Breakthrough moments are wonderful (and my students have experienced many) but the real work lies in showing up, letting go and being willing enough to surrender to the moment.
And did I mention this is fun? (I mean, doesn’t this look fun?)
For General Vocal Coaching, the first lesson is mostly diagnostic: getting to know you and your voice, your strengths and desired outcomes, whether for professional performance, a personal hobby, or simply trying something new. to build back confidence or express yourself more fully – in life and art – it’s a joy and a gift to help usher you there.
For performers interested in Audition Prep, I will:
• help you choose appropriate material and make your cutting
• make your sheet music "accompanist ready" (layout, markings, etc.)
• familiarize you with how your song will sound when played by an accompanist
• musically direct your song to most effectively showcase your voice and personality

TESTIMONIALS
“Paul is such an INSANE talent, but you would never know it based off how grounded he is. His coaching style is an exceptional balance of knowledge, patience, and humor. Lessons are a BLAST, and productive… you book work when ya coach with Paul!” – Renee C.
“I have been working with Paul for over two years now and I have gone from calling myself a Dancer who sings to a Dancer/Singer. Paul's ability to adapt his teaching in a million different ways until something clicks has helped my growth immensely. Recently, I have booked shows at Theatre By the Sea and North Shore Music Theatre with audition songs that we have worked on. He challenges me weekly because he can see through the boxes I often put myself in. Additionally, Paul's musicianship and accompanist abilities have been super helpful in feeling prepared for auditions and singing with live accompaniment. He is truly the best and I am always grateful for everything I have learned with him.” – Alex E.
“Working with Paul in preparation for my auditions has proved to be absolutely instrumental with my success as an actor. Paul has worked with me on my music for several years now and after working with him I landed lead roles in the Broadway Tour of RENT and the National Tour of Go Diego Go! He makes me feel comfortable and safe to work, while at the same time sharing some laughs and having a good time so that the work is also fun!” – Jesse C.
“I took a long break from singing and Paul has helped me find my voice again. His knowledge, tools, and encouragement have helped me feel comfortable and confident to get back in the room.” – Eliana M.
“Paul is a relaxed, creative genius! He is giving with his time and his creativity and has great innovative, unique ideas. I loved working with him and I often recommend him to my students and my colleagues. He is fun and funny and I would work with him again anytime!” – Ali S.
“Paul Peglar is awesome. He’s an astute and highly skilled accompanist and a helluva deal. I showed up at his house with challenging contemporary music for an important audition, and Paul knocked it out of the park. The following day at the audition, Paul was there early and was available so I had someone with whom to chat to calm my nerves before going in the room. Then he played it beautifully even though I’d only given it to him the day before. Hire this man.” – Zachary F.
