Klein Choir takes great pride in its outstanding private voice faculty. These highly trained individuals have advanced degrees and are professional singers as well as instructors. Students who take private voice lessons are able to learn musicianship, vocal technique and repertoire more quickly than those who do not. The very affordable rates for private lessons are established by the Klein ISD Fine Arts Department.
