Kristopher - Get to know your vocal coach
I am Kristopher Gottlieb, a multi-instrumentalist, guitarist, and vocalist with over 15 years of touring, studio, and teaching experience. My lessons focus on practical, real-world skills that build genuine musical fluency. Every session is tailored to your current level and goals. My core focus centers on interval training, relative pitch, and tracking chord progressions. A major element of my approach includes targeted, practice-based exercises designed to help you develop both relative pitch and perfect pitch over time. To support your technical precision and endurance, I also integrate essential breathing fundamentals into our routine. Through this framework, you will learn to transcribe music by ear, harmonize naturally, and connect what you hear directly to your voice or instrument. I work with students of all ages, including adults managing busy lives. To make learning sustainable, I provide a highly flexible schedule and a relaxed, patient lesson pace. Whether you want to fix a specific blind spot or completely overhaul your aural skills, we can develop a routine that works for you. All musical styles are welcome, from rock to pop. I will provide custom exercises for you to use at home. Feel free to send a message to discuss your goals and book your first session.

Specializing in guitar and vocals, I've catered to a diverse audience of over fifty students, ranging from children to adults at various skill levels and music interests.
