The Musical Arts Center and its team of superior instructors are wonderful to work with. By studying with MAC founder Karl Resnik, I've been able to take my vocal technique to new heights and apply this additional knowledge to my work in the theatre and in my freelance vocal performance, voiceover work, and more.

As a Talent Manager and being in the Entertainment field for over 30 years, I can say they are the best. (As well as being a Mother of two daughters who have gone to MAC) I have seen the results this studio and its Teachers can produce. It is amazing. These instructors are the absolute best in the business and we are lucky to have them in Cincinnati.

My daughter has been taking voice lessons at Musical Art Center for several years. All the instructors are super talented. Right now she is taking lessons with Kathy Cammet and she is wonderful. She has improved a lot. She is also doing the YAPP program with Lincoln Chapman and he is great. Marilyn Zelcer and Linda McCalister are also great teachers!

I began taking voice lessons with Kathy Cammett in early September, and within the past two months or so of working with her, I have noticed a tremendous improvement in the overall quality of my singing voice. She is a wonderful teacher and has given me a lot of tips and tricks that have greatly improved my technique. I highly recommend taking lessons from Kathy, or any of the wonderfully talented staff at the MAC, to anyone who is considering taking music lessons.

Both of my daughters spent a combination of over 10 years taking lesson with Marilyn Zelcer at the Musical Arts Center. She is an excellent voice teacher and has a gift for bringing new singers to their fullest potential. I highly recommend her studio. Both girls also were members of YAPP with Lincoln. Again, I highly recommend this program. Their singing and performing skills improved tenfold under his direction.

My daughter has worked with Troy for six years. He has been such an inspiration to her. His positive outlook makes her want to improve her skills. She absolutely loves her lessons with him. We have found Troy and the Musical Arts Center to be extremely flexible over the years. Would absolutely recommend Troy and the MAC.

I am a faculty member of The Musical Arts Center, and I have my MM in Voice Performance and Pedagogy. I am extremely proud of the quality of teaching, as well as the character of those I work with and for. The teaching at MAC is top-notch, with a kind and caring heart for each and every student. The quality of the vocalists produced here is astounding.
To do what these teachers do so consistently is something that should be applauded. That is why I am a proud member of the faculty. Young voices need patience, knowledge and care as they grow. MAC is one of the most pedagogically sound schools you will find. Not only do the students learn healthy technique from quality instructors, they also consistently place highly at competition, and get into quality university programs.
