About Andreas Grussl

Andreas is a founding member, mentor teacher and manager of the Institute for Vocal Advancement (IVA), an organisation based in Las Vegas, Nevada that trains singing teachers and singers worldwide. He runs a very successful voice studio in his hometown of Graz, the second biggest city in Austria where he trains singers from all over Austria and Europe in person and over the Internet. Andreas is known for high-quality vocal instruction and effective help to singers of all genres and levels.

Before Andreas decided to focus on singing and vocal pedagogy he graduated from law school and worked at a law firm that specialised in business and corporate law. He still lectures on constitutional and governmental law at the University of Technology in Graz. His legal background includes working at the Institute for Tax Law at the Law School of the Karl-Franzens-University at Graz, where he published articles and a book on Austrian and International tax law. Due to Andreas’ combined skills singers frequently consult with him for his expertise in dealing with the recording companies or for career advice.

Andreas believes that the future development of vocal pedagogy will make old singing traditions and modern science meet. Having a comprehensive knowledge about classical and modern vocal pedagogy Andreas is currently also studying physics in Graz in order to be able to understand the scientific principles that govern vocal organ even better.
