Testimonials
“Guy’s workshop has basically blew my mind off. He is a wonderful educator, well personally I would say a liberator. He helped me by clearing certain mind blocks that I had till that point of time; that has been really helpful to me in writing compositions or improvising with my instrument.”
Mayank Singh, Student at the KM College of Music & Technology
“Guy gave an amazing master class for our young professional opera. Each singer prepared an aria from his/her repertory, which was taken away and shaken from its formal and stylistic framework into new realms. Mr. Mintus took care to keep in mind the original operatic context and moved freely with the material to different places and situations, still remaining relevant to the original ones. The experience has been revealing for the singers, they did not only they encounter themselves in a new guise, but the expression of both music and text received new layers.”
Rosemarie Danziger, Director of the Tel Aviv-Vienna Vocal Connection
