At the beginning of 1978, the Canadian Academy of Vocal Music was founded by former high school music teacher, Ian Garrett. Since that time, our Mississauga-based vocal academy has helped equip and train those looking to become professional singers or those looking to just sing with more confidence. Garrett works with students across a range of abilities and vocal styles, including pop, rock, jazz, Broadway, and classical. Our studio is also a great resource for those in need of lessons on vocal technique, style, and interpretation.
