For me, Brenton singing lessons were a huge help. Six months after I joined as a total novice with the intention of learning more about musical theatre, I can now sing solo pieces with assurance at public gatherings.

The instruction of Brenton encompasses a wide range of musical knowledge, from deciphering chord charts to grasping traditional structures. His tranquil approach renders even challenging compositions manageable. My progress in a mere quarter of a year surpassed the gains of twelve months of solitary practice.
