ABOUT

Vocal Masterclass: A Conference For A Cause, is the premier conference for voice coaches, singers, voiceover artists and other vocal professionals. This annual event packs in an array of master teachers, providing multidisciplinary education, interactive workshops, a Voice Expo with product demonstrations and live vocal exams (stroboscopy). Attendees gain a deeper understanding of their voice with the most up-to-date techniques and industry know-how from those at the forefront of the field.

Vocal Masterclass is co-chaired by Dr. Reena Gupta, M.D. and Mindy Pack. Dr. Gupta is an author and world-renowned laryngologist who protects the voices of pop stars, and voice actors in the video game, audio book and film industries. Mindy Pack is a master vocal coach with extensive training in vocal health and rehabilitation. She works with some of the leading vocal artists of our time including Justin Timberlake, Pharrell, Halsey and Brandi Carlile. Mindy holds a certificate in Clinical Vocology from The National Center for Voice and Speech, and a certificate in laryngeal manipulation. Both women work with a vast network of vocal therapists and coaches to produce this conference and share the most current technical and industry knowledge with attendees.

Proceeds from Vocal Masterclass: A Conference For A Cause benefit the Osborne Head & Neck Foundation (OHNF), a medical non-profit that delivers free life-saving surgical care to communities in need around Los Angeles and the globe. After 5 years, this conference continues to develop excellence in vocal professionals and, in turn, raises critical funds for underserved people who need a voice to obtain life-saving care.
