Anne Marie Kenny's
Vocal Performance Studio (VPS)
Anne Marie Kenny, Vocal Instructor, loves to help others develop their artistic expression through music. Many of her current and former students are chosen for leading roles in musical theater productions, are in Opera Omaha's chorus, and have won first and second place in State, Regional, and National singing competitions, such as National Association of Teachers of Singing. Anne Marie is equally thrilled to work with avocational singers who take lessons simply for their own enjoyment, or who want to explore the beautiful songs of great classic and broadway composers.
