Hello, I am a professional Tenor and Singing Teacher in Central London and North London. Whether you are looking to master your voice for professional purposes or explore singing for personal growth, I believe I can help you release your true voice.
- Which subject(s) do you teach?
We will cover fundamentals of breathing, phonation, balanced tone and resonance, registers and range extension, as well as advanced performance concepts. My ideas are based on the traditional Italian Bel Canto approach, and incorporate the latest concepts of teaching, which may be applied to opera and concert music, as well as 'legit' West End/Broadway/theatre repertoire.
- Tell me about your qualifications.
I have Bachelor and Master conservatory degrees and have performed 35 professional roles in theatres in the UK, US, and Germany. I trained with renowned pedagogue Richard Miller at the Oberlin Conservatory, and my current teacher and mentor is Sicilian tenor Gioacchino (Jack) LiVigni. I have studied with some of the world's top teachers and have worked with coaches at the world's finest theatres. The study of the art of singing is my life's work.
- How much do you charge?
Singing lessons are 50 pounds per hour. If applicable there is also an additional 10 pounds charge for studio rental in Central London. Skype lessons also available.
- Where do you teach?
I teach at my home studio in Muswell Hill, and several studios in Central London including near Oxford Circus, Marble Arch, and Covent Garden. I also successfully teach students around the world via Skype, and may be able to travel to a student's home, depending on location.
- When are you available?
I teach from about 11am to 8pm during the week, as well as some weekend lessons.
- Which ages and levels do you teach?
I teach all ages from the young to the young at heart, from beginner to established professional. Generally speaking, singing lessons usually begin in teenage years, though I have successfully taught singing students as young as 10 and have experience with young voices and 'changing' voices.
- Which qualifications do you prepare your students for?
Professional auditions, Conservatory auditions, Choir auditions, ABRSM/Trinity exams, etc.
- Describe your arrangements for online tutoring.
I teach online via Skype and send an invoice for payment via Paypal which may be paid by credit card or bank transfer.
- Do you have a personal message for students?
Whether you are newly discovering the singing art or a more experienced artist seeking mastery, I believe I can help you. Please contact me with any questions or for more information, or to schedule a time. I look forward to hearing you!
