An active performer I have soloed in recital, opera, concert and musical theatre in the bay area and beyond. Sample roles: Tosca, Leonora-Trovatore, Tatyana-Onegin, Verdi Requiem, Elijah, Kiss me Kate and Side by Side by Sondheim.
Learn excellent technique based on the Italian "bel canto" tradition. Achieve clear vowel production, efficient breath management and body alignment to find the natural power and resonance of your voice. With specific and targeted exercises I can help you expand your range and achieve a strong, beautiful and easily produced tone top to bottom. Together, we will choose music you enjoy singing and which will challenge and assist your vocal growth. Musical and dramatic coaching are integrated into your lessons and emphasized in studio workshops and recitals where you can try out your songs for an audience of friends, family and fellow students.
Styles include musical theater, opera, art song and contemporary. Lyric diction: Spanish, German, French and Italian. Whatever your stylistic preference I will show you how an excellent technical foundation will serve you well in any style you wish to sing. I love working with motivated and committed singers. Let’s take your technique and interpretive performance skills to the next level. What are your big dreams? Let’s make them happen together!
