​
Vocal: These private vocal lessons are open to all ages (including adults!) as we explore vocal techniques, skills, and performance pieces for your unique voice!
Group Piano Lessons

​
Pre-Elementary, Early Elementary, Late Elementary, Middle School & High School Grouping

These classes are an introduction to piano for beginners. We will grasp a basic understanding of reading music, along with introducing chords and scales. The heart of this class is to lay the foundation of the piano through a practical approach to playing music. The pacing of this class is slower than our private lessons, but it still gives students a wonderful exploration of the piano! Pairing and timing for these classes will be based on interest, and there must be a minimum of two students to begin.

This class is a wonderful opportunity to receive individual growth and instruction within the safety of a group! Pairing and timing for these classes will be based on interest and there must be a minimum of two students to begin.

Laura Kittinger
Our last name, Kittinger (KIT-ing-grrrrr), means “house of song,” and it is my pleasure to share in the gift of song with others. I have a degree in Music Education from Oklahoma Baptist University with a certification to teach vocal and instrumental music in grades K-12. Over the years, I have taught middle school choir and private lessons, led choir camps, played cello in a variety of performing and recording contexts, and fostered a love for music in the hearts of our own three kids. It is my joy to open up our house of song to other families this season.
our vision
I believe each one of us carries a unique gift. When we bring that gift into a group, we create something entirely new together. Music is my favorite way to express and celebrate this beautiful way that we are made. Music unlocks us and frees us, and each of our lessons and classes is crafted to provide a safe and encouraging way to learn and develop the gift of song inside of us. In addition to private lessons, we also offer a variety of group classes, giving each student an opportunity to grow as an individual while also shaping and being shaped by the other students around them.
ready to get started?
Here are some final details, and when you would like to get started, contact Laura to set up your first time!
House of Song lessons and classes are both held in Mid-town Tulsa, and meet weekly. We ask that once you begin, you commit to continuing for the entire semester (fall, spring, and/or summer course). For the fall and spring semesters, payments will be due for the month at your first lesson/class of the month, and group and private lessons will offer one free make-up lesson at the end of the semester. For the summer course, there will be a one-time fee due at your first meeting time, and a price discount has been built in as no make-up lessons will be offered. Additional discounts are offered for families with 3+ kids for choir and family vocal lessons, so please note that as you are looking into what we offer!
