"I had the honor and pleasure of working with Micah Young as Musical Director in a brand new musical. It was heartwarming to know that [Micah is] not only a master pianist, but understood how a score must enhance the story. You will find no one more dedicated, fun, ego-free or sensitive to work with! - Lynne Wintersteller (Closer Than Ever, A Grand Night For Singing)

“Micah is a gifted musician, and has the ability to play any style of music with ease. He listens to me as a singer, and has enhanced my artistry & confidence from his coachings. Generous, specific, and encouraging, Micah has greatly improved my auditions. I highly recommend Micah for his amazing knowledge of musical theatre rep, and strong ability to coach material from a dramatic standpoint to give the best audition." -Wendi Bergamini (Frozen, Evita, South Pacific)

"Micah knows the technical aspects of music and is able to use that knowledge to help the singer, both on a technical level as well as on an interpretive level. He's a fun, lighthearted, warm, approachable person who genuinely wants the people he coaches to reach their highest potential. He gets a lot done while keeping the atmosphere easy. Go see him!” - Joseph Medeiros (Groundhog Day, Matilda, West Side Story)

“I've experienced all types of teachers in this business, and I have to say, my relationship with Micah Young has been one of the most life changing and important. He's going to let you know what the industry standard is for professionalism and he'll get you there. In terms of teaching style, he's there to let you know what to expect, and how to prepare.” - Aaron David Gleason (Gilly Leads, The Jimmy Lloyd Songwriter Showcase, recording artist)

“Not only is Micah an arranger and accompanist, he’s also a very talented composer and musical director. He understands lyrics. He addresses not only the musicality of a song, but also the storytelling. He’ll break down and discuss each lyric. He’s kind but honest and will tell you if he does, or doesn’t, believe the honesty and sincerity of the song and your singing.”  - Felicity Claire (Mamma Mia!)
