“Words make you think a thought. Music makes you feel a feeling. A Song makes you feel a thought”
Julie Andrews

Hi! I’m Adriana Zabala, and I just wanted to take a minute to introduce myself.

I’m a native Floridian who grew up in Argentina. My dad is from Argentina, and my mom is from Cuba. I attended Belvedere Elementary, Conniston Middle, and Forest Hill High School in West Palm Beach, Florida (straight down Parker Ave.). After graduating from Florida State University in 2002 with a degree in vocal performance, I immediately immersed myself in performing, ranging from opera to musical theater. I’ve been incredibly fortunate to have fantastic performance opportunities, including my own One Woman shows in town and on luxury cruise ships around the world. Throughout it all, I’ve always had a deep love for teaching and sharing my passion for music with my students. I’ve worked as an artist in residence for several schools in the county, including the School of the Arts, all while maintaining a full private voice studio.

Thanks to my amazing supportive parents, I began teaching in my parents’ spare bedroom but eventually decided to get my own studio space. In 2012, I officially opened Adriana Zabala’s Voice and Music Academy. In 2018, I made a significant move to our current location, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to have nine other teachers who share the same passion for sharing their love of music with their students. As a voice teacher and performance coach for over 22 years, I take pride in inspiring and motivating students to become the best musicians they can be, ensuring that music remains an integral part of their lives.

If you’re interested in voice lessons, music lessons (piano, guitar, ukulele, or drums), our teachers are excited and ready to start with you or your child. We are also highly skilled in providing audition preparation for arts schools, shows, community choirs, summer programs, colleges, and anything else you may need to prepare for. Our lessons are personalized, challenging, and fun, with the aim of having you coming back week after week. Our goal is for each student to gain the confidence needed to excel not only in music but also in everyday life. We love exposing our students to performance opportunities in town and at their schools. We even have a group called AZ Singers that meets weekly, focusing on performing in the community in various capacities, from National Anthem performances to Christmas Caroling and everything in between. Additionally, we host recitals on our very own stage as frequently as possible.

To put it simply, my passion is music, and having the opportunity to share that passion with my students has been a dream come true. Please don’t hesitate to contact us so we can embark on your musical journey together.
