Regina Walter Cartwright 

"Regina is an amazing teacher of both piano and voice as well as an accomplished singer. Her students consistently place high in contests and present very well in recital and auditions. Her style is consistent and conscientious. She is very musical and passes this on to her students in a nurturing manner" ~ Suzanne Gauvreau, former colleague

​

"Regina is a very talented and highly motivated performer with a beautiful voice and lively sense of humor. I had the good fortune to work with her recently in a musical comedy where she was cast in a leading role and performed it flawlessly." ~ Steve Banner, St. Writer/Editor at WebCE

​

"I consider Regina the best voice/piano instructor in the area. She has the unusual combination of high expectations along with teaching in a non-threatening friendly environment, which allows her students the desire to not only quickly progress but to connect with their talents. I would highly recommend Regina for voice and/or piano instruction." ~ Mike H., parent of student for 10 years

​

"Regina teaches my sons piano. She brings so much to each lesson: knowledge, fun, and patience. She challenges, yet works to make them comfortable. She has a winning approach and I am pleased with my boys' progress under her instruction." ~ Shelley D., parent of students

​

"Regina is an excellent teacher. She has a thorough knowledge of technique and repertoire and is compassionate and patient. I recommend her enthusiastically!" ~ Jeffrey Snider, former chair, Division of Vocal Studies at University of North Texas

​

"It was my great pleasure to work with Regina on Der Schauspieldirektor/The Impresario for the Central Texas Opera Festival; myself as staging director, and Regina in the role of Ms. Alt, the prima donna company soprano. That Regina possesses great talent is is so self-evident as to be hardly worth mentioning; anyone who has ever heard her knows that without my additional say-so. The fact that she is also extremely dedicated, wonderful team player, and willing work outside of her comfort zone is what elevates her to a position of someone truly special."  ~ John Sefel, Stage Director

​

"Regina is an extremely conscientious and detail oriented instructor. She is very invested in her students' progress and strives to make her students the very best they can be. Quality of teaching is of utmost importance to her. I also had the opportunity to serve as her accompanist many times; it was such a treat to listen to and accompany such a beautiful soprano voice!" ~ Rosemarie Kutchuk, former colleague

​

"Regina is an extremely talented singer, performer, pianist and teacher. She is knowledgeable in pedagogical technique and is able to adapt to students' various learning styles. Regina has a wonderful rapport with her students and they respect and adore her. She values and encourages her student along the way to be successful in their endeavors. She would be a valuable instructor to any school or organization who is fortunate enough to have her." ~ Monica Dane, former colleague

​

"We have had the pleasure of knowing Regina for a few years. Our daughter has taken piano lessons from her. Regina has many qualities that make her a wonderful teacher. She is kind, patient, encouraging, very talented, and professional. She relates well with our daughter and has a genuine interest in her students. I love the fact that she drives to our home and is flexible with schedule conflicts. For our family, she is more than a great teacher, she is a dear family friend.! ~ Beth M, parent of student

​

"As a new voice student, I practiced sight-singing, songs in various languages, and healthy vocal techniques while maintaining my piano skills. Regina recognized my talent and helped me develop a strong voice. I learned to stop holding myself back and to always "Go for it." I soon overcame my fear of singing solos in front of large audiences. She has always encouraged me to reach my full potential as a musician. Regina told me how proud she was of my hard work and effort that I put into competitions. She made me realize that the outcome does not always define who you are or what you are capable of, but it is the preparation that truly counts. Regina is not only my teacher, but she a role model and friend. She is the ideal person to emulate, for she is passionate, talented, blithe and optimistic. She has taught me motivation, devotion, and determination - life skills that are essential for pursuing a career in the arts. As I continue to further my education and create my own path in life, I aspire to serve as a positive influence in other people's lives just like Regina Walter has in mine." ~ Lesley S., former student

​

"My son started taking voice lessons at home with Regina Walter. We had gotten a recommendation from another family about a wonderful private voice instructor and because I was concerned abut his voice being hoarse many times after  heater performances, I thought we would try her. Regina worked with him on breathing and how to cope with his changing voice. Regina has also worked with college students. I feel she is an outstanding vocal instructor and works so well with both developing and accomplished singers. You will find Regina to be very professional and easy to get along with. She definitely enjoys teaching healthy vocal technique and instilling motivational discipline to singing students; they have fun yet accomplish a great deal of work. " ~ Kimberly S., parent of student

​

"Regina Walter provides another dimension, creating solid singers by incorporating techniques, for example, that build lung capacity, diaphragm strength/control and improve their ability to sustain notes comfortably and not by straining. Aside from her skill, Regina Walter is very positive and encouraging without compromising her expectations. In my mind, this is the recipe for teachers who inspire students to excel." ~ Matt S., parent of student

 

"I have taken lessons for almost 5 years now and have enjoyed, most recently, working with Regina Walter for my voice and piano lessons. She has given me great insight and a new appreciation for music that I will carry with me forever. I greatly appreciated all the knowledge, kindness and patience she exhibits." ~ Kim F., adult student

​

"The last 9 years have been amazing. My daughter has learned so much from Regina Walter in both piano and voice. Regina has been everything you could want in a teacher, professional, knowledgeable, compassionate, and caring, as well as a good listener and friend. My daughter has learned so much from her and feels very fortunate to have had Ms. Regina to help her prepare for many choir and theater events and auditions. My daughter is grateful for all she has learned in her 9 years before heading to college." ~ Allena R., parent of student
