Private Voice lessons with International Opera Professional
Hello! My name is Gordon G. After completing my Bachelor's degree in Secondary Education (Mathematics) at the University of Calgary in Canada I embarked on a 30-year career in classical music, both concert and opera. My work took me all over the world from the United States to Australia to China to Japan to the major stages of the European continent. My early love of teaching meant that throughout my travels I constantly sought opportunities to connect with young singers, to encourage...

outstanding lesson
This was a much needed lesson for daughter’s audition next week. We were panicked. But then we connected with Gordon who gave her the skills and confidence to succeed. He has a great way about him and was vested in her success from the start.

Sophisticated and encouraging teacher
Gordon knows how to bring the sounds out of you and is a great encourager in the process of doing so. He’s very knowledgeable in his field and is easy to converse with. For me he knows singing is a new experience and he is the perfect fit for the job. Oh and not only can he teach singing but he can walk the walk to. Which is makes me feel more comfortable taking instruction from him. I highly recommend Gordon as your teacher/tutor.

The Best Tutor
After three classes, I see great progress and am getting more motivated to improve my singing skills. Lessons that Gordon provides me with are easy to follow. They are constructing the vocal foundations that I can feel a great progress. Two weeks ago, I even didn't know what pitch is, and now I can do pitch matching. He is very knowledgeable, and I am so glad that I have the chance to work with him.

Gordon
Gordan is great. He's very enthusiastic and really loves what he does, it's very apparent. He is organized and very on track, he has all his techniques and methods seemingly second nature so it's just a matter of relaying his knowledge to you. I look forward to working with him again.

Very knowledgeable
I took a class with Gordon. He is so professional, knowledgeable, and supportive. He gave me the courage to be comfortable and sing in the class. He breaks the lessons to simple and small parts and explain everything so I can easily follow. I have no experience in singing but I believe I saw a great progress in the first session and will definitely continue to work him. I highly recommend him to every student. It does not matter what level you are at. He can improve your singing skill as he is himself a terrific singer.

Simply Amazing
The combination of Gordon’s love of teaching, and the years of experience that came with his opera career, truly shines throughout the entire lesson. If you are looking for voice lessons, he should be your first contact. Gordon treats each one of his students as if they were his only one.

Well prepared especially with beginners
Gordon did a fantastic job and not only understanding the goals I wanted to achieve as a singer but also was able to explain how to achieve those goals in a simple yet constructive manner. We only worked on technique, as per my request, so that we were able to focus on the basic building blocks of healthy, easy, beautiful singing. He is super encouraging and is so supportive in his teaching. I would highly recommend and will be taking future lessons!

Gordon Gietz - voice teacher
Gordon is a terrific teacher! He was so nice, so helpful and very easy to understand. I think he is wonderful for beginners like me. Frankly, I was nervous about working with him when I read about his long international singing career but he couldn't have been more down to earth. A great experience. Can't wait for the next lesson!
