WHAT OTHERS SAY ABOUT US
Indeed, millions have been impacted through Lorraine Music Academy. These include students, parents and the community at large. Certainly you would like to know what people have to say about us through their testimonial.
“Hello I’m Rishan Bhatnagar. I’m part of the Vienna Boys Choir. It is indeed the most famous boys’ choir in the world. I’m going to tell you my story of a life time. At the age of 5 I joined Lorraine Music Academy and I learnt Piano there. Learning the Piano at Lorraine Music Academy was very fun. But moreover it helped me sing the right notes right on time. It helped me how to read notes and it helped me overall in singing too.”
“At the age of 6, after I had got my musical year, Lorraine Music Academy asked me to perform at a LAMP® Trust concert. So I did it. It was held on the 15th of August. Every day I went for every practice, even though some times it was really late at night. I had some sports classes before singing practice yet I came in with my sweaty t-shirt. I didn’t want to take a shower because it would make me late.”
“Later at the age of 9, the Vienna Boys Choir director – Gerald Wirth, came to the Mozart’s Children’s Choir. He came there to select some people for the Vienna Boys Choir. I was selected. At the age of 9 I went to the Vienna Boys Choir. I was the youngest there.”
“Recently I sang on the 10th of August at a LAMP® Trust concert in Kingdom of Dreams. I sang ‘When You Wish upon a Star’ from Disney’s Pinocchio Movie.”
“If I hadn’t learnt the Piano then surely I wouldn’t be able to sing as well as I can today. Every singer needs practice, therefore practice is important. Once our Choir didn’t practice and we were off key, on the floor. We didn’t know anything at that concert. However once we practiced 5 days in a row before a concert in Carnegie Hall. Since we practiced we were the best we have ever been.”
“My Vision in life has always been to make Music for people who are in hard times. And to make music that will calm people down.”

“The teachers here are certainly far more fun loving according to me. I feel I’m able to interact with them far more than I was able to interact with my other teachers”
“I like Lorraine Music Academy. Because they have some new tricks where I can learn the notes and the timing easy”
“My father searched for a music academy in Gurgaon, so we found Lorraine Music Academy. Thus we found that it was extremely good. The teachers here are very sincere”
“I like Lorraine Music Academy because it’s very fun”
“Lorraine Music Academy has indeed made me improve in Music in Guitar. I have learnt different songs and all the notes”
“Here at the Lorraine Music Academy we study different instruments. We also learn to read notes, jam with different people on the spot and give exams on different instruments. Lorraine Music Academy has helped me because I tried a few academies before this and they were not as engaging. They only stuck to the books while this academy taught me how to jam with other people”
“I’ve learnt a lot over here in a very short period of time. I have also improved a lot of stuff which includes life skill as well as Music. This has made me more composed in life and I have in fact become a bit more patient.”
“It’s a great academy and here the teachers are very motivating and good”
“On his send-off party, Rishan Bhatnagar says, “Lorraine Music Academy is the best music academy in the whole world!” Rishan, a student of the Lorraine Music Academy (Piano, Vocal, Choral Singing), has been selected by the Vienna Boys’ Choir. They selected him to study music and travel & perform with them across the world. He has also been offered a Scholarship to carry on his school studies and education in Vienna, Austria. We wish you the very best in all your ventures in life, Rishan! See you soon! Au Revoir!”
“Rishan has always loved music, be it singing or just listening. He first started learning music in Gurgaon at the Lorraine Music Academy when he was 6 years old. Here, he learnt to play the Piano while also taking vocal and choral singing lessons. Now he has come a long way over the past 3 years. Thus Lorraine Music Academy has laid a strong music foundation and understanding in Rishan’s life. We now see its result through the Trinity College London exam Rishan takes every year.”
“Rishan has thus evolved into a confident onstage performer. This is because of him joining the Choir and the regular “Come India Sing” concerts. Lorraine Music Academy always hosted these concerts in aid of LAMP® Trust. As a result over these past 3 years I have witnessed him grow in character. Moreover, he has grown in terms of personality, quality of voice, and the confidence with which he performs on stage. Indeed, Rishan has a happy go lucky temperament. Yet, he always adheres to whatever commitments he takes on in life.”
“Aubrey’s vision and inspiration brings out my creativity and passion for music. Moreover he constantly challenges us to set new standards. Thus Aubrey is a true visionary. He has his head in the clouds and yet his feet are planted firmly on hard rock. Furthermore he can see far ahead and transform a seemingly impossible potential into an amazing reality.”
“I really admire Aubrey Aloysius and Lorraine Aloysius for their passion in ‘making the world a better place through music’. Indeed it is a passion which they have had for many years. I have known them both for a long time. Whenever we meet I always come away with a sense that these two are doing something different. They are doing something so positive as compared to our normal corporate lives.”
“I have followed with great joy over the last 6 years the wonderful work that Aubrey, and Lorraine, his amazingly talented musician-wife has been doing with young children and music in the Gurgaon area.”
“During all of that time, Aubrey has been working fervently and without a break for the progress of music. Indeed it has been a pleasure seeing him infuse the same passion in other people.”
“What has the Lorraine Music Academy done for me?”
“To answer that question I would have to let you know something about who & what I am.”
“I am an accountant by qualification. Am an executive in service and am professionally well placed.”
“I have always been fascinated by music and hence have held people who are good in music in great awe. Whether it be vocal or instrumental; contemporary or classical; it does not matter. Thus people who can hold a note in tune by all means evoke the greatest respect in my life. This obviously lets you know that I had very little confidence in my own ability to do so.”
“And that is when I met Lorraine. With a great degree of dis-belief & prudence I began the journey of discovering that I too could play the piano. Thus the induction into this system of education has indeed transformed my belief in a lot of things. For one I now truly believe that one day I shall be very good at playing the piano. And also could hold an audience in rapt attention. Secondly I also know that my personal understanding of music has increased manifold.”
“I now dedicate a lot of time to listening to quality music. It not only enhances my overall sense of the flow of music but also is a great stress buster. I lead a hectic work life. Therefore one of the most major side effects of attending the classes is that my life cycle has changed radically. Thus music has allowed me to take a much more complete view on existence as a whole.”
“Music taught with diligence and passion at Lorraine Music Academy is not just a test into whether I can learn music. In fact it is a whole experience which has the potential to sort out one´s life style.”
