Oscar Diaz is a leading professional in vocal technique and vocal health. He has the ability to truly fine tune the voice. He also has a wonderful knowledge of repertoire for all voice types. His artistic integrity is the heart and soul of the entire operation, making him one of the best voice teachers in South Florida!

Oscar is a superb teacher for the serious and dedicated singer. He expands and strengthens vocal skills, and broadens musicianship. His vast performance experience in different venues helps develop stage presence. Oscar is also a professional in business: never misses an appointment and keeps accurate records of payment. Lastly, and of equal importance, while being a strict teacher, he is warm and caring on the inside; understanding and sensitive to personal situations that can effect not only performing, but everyday living.

Oscar Diaz's training is unique in that it creates complete artists. His students are knowledgable, professional, artistic, and above all phenomenal technicians. He brings out the beauty of each individual instrument and doesn't create "cookie cutter" singers. Because he is so deeply passionate he hold his students to a standard of excellence that pushes each student, regardless of experience, to continue to improve and to find more freedom and expression.

As his student I came to Oscar with a lot of vocal challenges. He has shown me how to embrace the uniqueness of my voice and to find power and freedom in a wide range of repertoire. Oscar's mastery is apparent in all he does and I would suggest any singer who is serious about a professional career to give him a call.

Oscar Diaz, Jr. is a sincere and gifted voice teacher with a deep knowledge of vocal technique and pedagogy. I brought my 10th grade son to him (from Minnesota) for a series of classical voice lessons and we were extremely pleased with his teaching. Oscar has a great rapport with his students, yet holds them to the highest standards and strives for the best result for each learner.

I know that his students range from beginners to professional opera singers. He is excellent at assigning ability-based, age-appropriate repertoire, and is able to communicate concepts and ideas very well, both verbally and through demonstration. Oscar exposes his students to a variety of music outlets and enrichments, and provides his studio students regular opportunities to perform, hosting bi-annual studio recitals. Mr. Diaz also belongs to NATS, a professional music teachers' association, and is active in the organization. Many of his students participate in NATS and other competitions. Oscar Diaz Jr. is a voice teacher of the highest caliber, and I highly recommend him. -Sigrid Redpath

Oscar Diaz is an amazingly talented voice teacher and coach, I'd say one of the best in the nation. His vast and profound knowledge of the workings all types of voices makes him a true master of vocal pedagogy. His unique ability to make every voice from the beginner to the professional improve, makes him a gift to the musical world. His mastery of teaching operatic bel canto with the greatest and soundest of vocal techniques is unparalleled.

His voice pedagogy is directly tied to the greatest of bel canto teachers from the golden age of opera. Oscar Diaz will always be completely truthful with your vocal abilities and will give it his all in order to take your voice to great heights. He is tireless in this endeavor. Oscar, a teacher/ coach for any singer. from the beginner, to the professional. The opera community and I are blessed to have this professional in our world.

I'm so thankful to have discovered Performer's Music Institute. My teacher, Mr. Oscar Diaz, is not only a gifted instructor for advanced vocal technique, but he is also very perceptive at analyzing and fixing performance, staging, and stage presence. I've studied for YEARS with other teachers, and have grown the most with Oscar. I also teach music in the public schools, and his training of ME has also had a positive effect on my OWN students! He sets the bar high, and I'm loving working with him!

Oscar Diaz, Jr is the best voice teacher in Miami by far. He is a solid technical teacher and I credit him with my vocal successes today. I began studying with him over 20 years ago as a teenager and he got me through the college audition process where I ultimately was accepted at a top NYC conservatory. I continue to take lessons with him when I visit Miami or when he is up in NYC and trust him implicitly with my voice. Miami is lucky to have such a dedicated professional in their midst.

Oscar helped me find my love for music and helped me achieve my goals for my voice, which included increasing my upper range and singing and speaking in a healthy way. He also gave me a finer and more nuanced appreciation for the art. Oscar is very professional, gives clear instructions, helps you by being completely objective and honest but in a warm, loving manner. I would (and frequently do!) recommend him to anyone looking to improve their musicianship with all my heart!

If you are looking for high quality voice lessons in the greater Miami area, then look no further. Oscar Diaz of the Performer's Music Institute is easily one of the most qualified and learned teachers in South Florida. I have studied with him for approximately 6 years and I have seen many of his students (some who have studied with him for 20+ years) in concert. Oscar's grasp of the vocal instrument and his understanding of vocal technique, and his ability to drill that very same understanding into your own head with regular vocalizations and very specific repertoire work is incredible.

He focuses on quality over quantity, making sure that all the rep you learn, every phrase, note, and syllable sits somewhere comfortably in your voice, where you can be heard without straining, and you can sing notes and feel like you never need to stop singing. I highly recommend at least reaching out, because you never know where his advice might take you, and with as much experience as he has in the world of opera (especially in Miami), it usually does best to listen.
