DANIEL PRIEGNITZ
Daniel is a highly experienced vocal coach with over 10 years of expertise, certified as an MVT Level 2 Vocal Coach and set to begin the Level 3 course in January 2025. He holds a degree in jazz, pop, and rock music with a focus on singing and pedagogy, and has worked extensively as a singing teacher, band leader, and choir director. His passion for extreme vocal techniques, particularly in hard rock, heavy metal, and guttural styles like growling and screaming, led him to specialize in these areas. Daniel’s deep knowledge of vocal effects is enhanced by his ongoing collaboration with the Freiburg Institute for Musicians’ Medicine, where he researches the mechanics of guttural sound production. He integrates these scientific insights into his lessons and workshops, and is often consulted as an expert on metal and guttural vocal techniques. In addition to teaching metal vocals, Daniel also instructs in jazz, pop, rock, and musical theater, as well as clean extreme vocal techniques such as those used in power metal. He works with a wide range of students, from singers to professionals who rely on their voice in everyday work, offering guidance on vocal health and rehabilitation. His expertise also extends to audio engineering, specializing in recording and editing vocals. In fall 2024, Daniel will lead the Modern Vocal Training Level 3 modules, focusing on “Extreme Vocal Effects.”
