QUOTES

“I had the privilege of accompanying a community choir with Karis as the conductor. We had a really good time working together. Karis has a sunny disposition and a great sense of humor. She brings joy to music-making, and inspires others to embark on musical journeys of their own.”  L. Hiebert

“Karis Wiebe was my voice teacher for several years. She was instrumental in not only training me at a high level, but in encouraging me to get out there and share my voice, songs and love for music with as many people as possible, and in as many places as possible.

One day, in one of our many conversations she ended the conversation by saying firmly "Just Do It"! I knew at that point she was very serious about it and away I went. Thanks Karis for your encouragement. I am excited and grateful to say that I have been blessed with Karis as a voice teacher and I have just completed my third full length album filled with my song writing and vocals. Praising the Lord for all good and great things in life! Amen!"

E. Wiens ~ student

“Every week I looked forward so much to voice lessons with Karis. Her standard of excellence and genuine warmth as a person made me feel both comfortable and challenged to take risks, make mistakes, and grow in my confidence as a singer. Karis taught me foundational vocal techniques and practices and offered detailed personal feedback every lesson. Karis could always call something from me that I didn’t know I could do. Most uniquely, she showed me how to have fun and feel unashamed in putting my voice forward, and for that I am forever grateful.”

G. DeFehr ~ student

“I have taken lessons with Karis and can’t recommend her highly enough! She is knowledgeable, fun, encouraging and always accommodating. With Karis’s help and instruction, I have learned a broad range of musical styles and techniques that keep me singing and loving music.”

C. Dueck ~ student

“I started taking voice lessons in junior high school after much begging and pleading. Karis Wiebe was the perfect fit for a pitchy teen with low self-esteem and a love for singing. Karis nurtured my infatuation with musical theatre while improving my vocal technique. Over the years Karis offered me a safe space to express myself and develop my art. I participated in both private and semi-private lessons with Karis over the span of 7 years and my confidence grew as a result. I was offered the lead role in my school’s musical (on more than one occasion) and received various other performance opportunities thanks to Karis’ guidance. I am ever grateful for the technical insights, humour and compassion I experienced during my classes with Karis. It was a wonderful to have Karis as an instructor and I would certainly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable teacher.”

PARENT TESTIMONIALS

“Karis” enthusiasm and soulful connection to music opens the heart and brings so much joy. Her ability to establish rapport with each student, no matter their ability or level of musicianship, is a true gift. She teaches from her heart and soul, with so much authenticity, warmth and support. Any student of music is lucky to experience her as a teacher.” 

T. Franz ~ parent (musician and teacher)

“My son excelled in group lessons with Karis. Not only did the group further their vocal technique, they performed at a variety of venues. He learned how to sing in harmony, blend, read notes, and become sensitive to vocal balance.

As a singer and performer myself, I’ve often relied upon Karis’ expert coaching to help me elevate my own singing skills for various solo singing performances. Her intuitive, caring approach is always a winning combination, no matter who she works with!

A. M. Dueck ~ Parent (singer and teacher)

“Karis Wiebe is truly one of the finest vocalists in Winnipeg. She conducted our church children’s choir which my daughter took part in. Karis then became her private vocal instructor. My daughter loved her lessons which were a combination of fun and top quality instruction!

Semi-private lessons were particularly beneficial with a focus on teaching singing harmony. My daughter was consequently offered solo roles both in her elementary and middle school concerts. She was also offered solo roles in various local theatre performances. I highly recommend Karis to anyone seeking quality vocal instruction.

Karis’ unique multi-age music teaching background allows her to connect with her students on a personal level, which is characterized by exceptional warmth and sensitivity."
