From Student to Stage:How LA Conservatories Launch Singing Careers

Los Angeles is the global hub for music, with opportunities ranging from session singing and songwriting  to recording and live tours. For aspiring singers, one of the most direct pathways into the industry is training at a vocal conservatory in Los Angeles with a staff of well known working professionals who are ultra connected in the scene. At HVS Conservatory in Venice, CA, we’ve designed our programs to help artists move from student to stage-ready artist in record time.

1. Intensive Training Builds Strong Foundations

At a vocal conservatory, singers receive daily training in technique, range, best practices in professional sessions and events, and are surrounded by artists and mentors on a daily basis for actionable advice. Unlike a casual pursuit in music, conservatory programs emphasize professionalism and open doors to expand your network.
