James MacAlpine 

Music Theatre Singer, Actor Bachelor of Music Theatre, WAAPA, Diploma of Music Theatre, NIDA

Jen’s in depth understanding of the intricacies of the voice helped support me through my teenage years. Her goal focused approach meant I was able to tangibly track my progress as a singer, which ultimately lead to more wholistic growth as a performer. Singing can often be difficult, but whenever I was having trouble Jen knew how to help me maintain a positive mindset toward my development as a singer , which I believe is the most invaluable skill she brings to her lessons. I learnt so much from Jen and would 100% recommend her to anyone seeking lessons.

Jen has been such a supportive and nurturing vocal teacher throughout my time at her studio. Her extensive knowledge in vocal technique and professional experience in the industry has provided opportunities for myself and many other vocalists to develop strong technical and performance skills which has lead to great success in the music industry. I cannot thank her enough for all that she has helped me achieve and for the inspiration she gives to vocalists of all ages.

Jennifer Turnbull has been an incredible mentor throughout the years. Through her thorough and diverse vocal training, I have achieved numerous personal goals as a developing performing artist. Jenn’s technical knowledge of the voice is outstanding in both a classical and contemporary context.

Through her training, I’ve learnt various ways of vocalising to suit all genres of musical theatre, pop and classical opera. Not only has Jen advanced my vocal technique, but she’s also an outstanding performance mentor, displaying a creative, experiential and process-focused teaching style which helped develop my storytelling skills and establish my own artistic style.

Above all, Jen is such a beautiful person with a heart of gold! Because of Jen, I have been fortunate enough to gain offers for both NIDA (Dip MT 2021) and WAAPA (BA MT 2024) as well as performance opportunities such as Featured Artist in the NSW Schools Spectacular and Southern Stars. Thank you Jen!

Singer / Songwriter

Jen has been my vocal coach for over 3 years. I joined Jen at a time where my confidence was low and I was struggling with my voice breaking and how this impacted on my singing. Jen was wonderful,  we worked together to discover my new range and how to use this effectively in my choice of songs and singing. 

Jen has supported me through auditions, shows, single releases and even bad days.  I am very grateful for her flexibility and versatility as well as her knowledge and continual encouragement.
