Hello I am is Luis Montalbert, I am the soloist of Gandhi and Gourguen Mkrtytchian’s student. My experience with Gourguen has been wonderful really; Gourguen has been an excellent coach for me… We have explored my skills, my corporal ability, my projection, my breathing…a lot of things… we have reached places I never thought I could sing and also considering the frequency that sometimes the level we have reached demands, that is having several concerts and the voice intact. For me it’s been very revealing throughout this journey and also rewording to know that it is possible… maybe my natural build did not have a particular sensitivity, and to realize that the technique may take me there… that the technique is so precise and useful for singing.
