WHY MY STUDIO
IS DIFFERENT

OLD-SCHOOL TECHNIQUE

THROUGH A MODERN LENS

 

Were you aware that a majority of the world's renowned opera houses now incorporate amplification? The prevailing sentiment suggests that contemporary voices may not possess the same robustness as those of the past. The explanation for this shift lies in the evolving trends of modern vocal pedagogy, influencing how classical singers have been instructed in conservatories over the last six decades. This shift isn't inherently positive or negative; it is just simply different.

 

As an enthusiast of the operatic art form and the golden age of singing, I developed an interest in historical pedagogy to ensure this tradition would not be lost. If you're eager to transform your singing with a more resonant, pharyngeal quality and enhance your chest voice, your search ends here.

BECOMING

CAREER-READY

BEYOND SINGING

 

Upon completing university and entering the professional world of singing, I quickly realized that my peers and I were confronted with challenges unaddressed by conservatory training. This realization fueled my commitment to primarily work with singers in the midst of their formal studies, providing both one-on-one and group sessions.

 

If you find yourself grappling with issues such as physical or mental endurance during performances or rehearsals, struggling with procrastination or handling rejection, or facing difficulties in swiftly memorizing extensive music and text, don't hesitate to reach out. I'm here to help. My goal is not only to address these immediate concerns but also to empower singers with the skills to become independent, resilient artists.

SCHOLARSHIP

Each year, I grant a studio scholarship, in honour of my late father. This scholarship provides a deserving singer with the opportunity to work with me at no cost, aiming to break down barriers and foster a more inclusive and accessible musical community.
