Liz Caplan
Liz is a world-renowned vocal supervisor, coach, and consultant.
Her students are represented on Broadway, in the recording industry, and in Film and TV. Many have also been recipients of the prestigious Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Awards. In addition to her work with recording artists, Liz also consults for all the major record labels.
Liz also has the honor of working with many Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Award-winning musical directors, writers, composers, and arrangers. She consults on many projects from the earliest stages of their development and keeps her finger on the pulse of both the theatre and music industries.
Liz and her associates also teach specialized master classes and workshops, which provide a supportive group dynamic for singers, dancers, and actors to further develop their craft. These workshops provide performers with physical and vocal warm-ups for auditions, studio sessions, and performances, relaxation techniques for nervousness, emotional connection to the song, improved body language, as well as focus and connection to the breath.
Liz draws upon many diverse disciplines in her approach to teaching voice. Her innovative use of physical alignment, exercise, and nutrition help to build and maintain a healthy instrument. Her unique practice incorporates yoga, breathing, and relaxation techniques, along with Alexander and Linklater philosophies. Vocal exercises, tailored to the individual student, aim to strengthen the larynx and vocal cords, and release the tongue and jaw in order to increase range and flexibility.
Liz’s affiliations include: The American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (AFTRA), The Drama League, and The National Association of Teachers of Singing (NATS), where she has been a speaker, panelist and workshop facilitator. She is also on the faculty of the Voice Foundation in Philadelphia, PA and is a member of the New York Singing Teachers’ Association (NYSTA), as well as a member of the Voice and Speech Therapists Association (VASTA).
