Training
The following is a list of the teachers who made the greatest impact on Carolena's voice and ear:
Voice:
Helen Maynard
Debbie Gresham
Lynn Utzinger
JaZz:
Bobby Scann (Professional Musician - Trombone)
Joe Baque (Professional Musician - Piano)
Richard Lopez (Professional Musician - Trombone)
The above list is by no means complete. Carolena is grateful to all of the artists and teachers who contributed to her music education. There have been many who have influenced her who have not been named here, such as various "A List" music professionals living in (or who have visited) the greater Las Vegas area, along with members of Las Vegas Musician's Local 369. There have also been significant contributions made by fine professionals from Portland, OR and other cities; as well as additional instructors at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV).
