Marcy Talley, Private Voice Teacher
Marcy Talley and her husband, John, moved to the Texas City area in 2010. She began teaching private voice lessons and piano lessons while attending college at Ouachita Baptist University in Arkansas in the early 1980's, where she pursued a degree in vocal performance and a minor degree in piano. She has been teaching in the TCISD private voice lessons program since its inception in 2010. When Marcy is not teaching, you can find her in front of her cook top trying to modify or create a new recipe. She also enjoys singing alongside her husband as he serves as the Worship Pastor at the First Baptist Church in Texas City. One of her greatest joys is to share her love of music with her students...to teach them the art of becoming a better musician, with a passion for music in all its forms.
