Baltimore, MD Opera Voice Lessons

Experienced voice teacher available for eager students of all experience levels and ages! I work building a strong foundation of the old Italian school of singing, working hard to ensure you understand and learn the basics of "appoggio' technique, line and style in singing.
I specialize in Opera, Art song and Oratorio but with my technique you can approach any genre, whether you want to sing musical theater, jazz, blues,etc.

My students can increase the breathing capacity and vocal range. We will work on improving the quality of sound and proper vowel placement.

As a graduate student of General Music Education, I have access to a number of performing opportunities including opera, recital, vocal solo class, master classes, and studio classes. The voice and opera program at my private music studio offer students a variety of course offerings that promote a strong technical and pedagogical foundation. Students receive weekly vocal instruction and, in addition, a weekly musical preparation sessions with the vocal coach.

My specialty is in classical voice technique, whether that be for opera or art song. My formal training encompasses over 13 years.

I have been taking classical voice lessons for 12 years, and I have been giving singing lessons for 3 years to a wide range of students. I have a Bachelor of Music degree, with a focus in opera, so I am well-versed in many forms of technique and style. I believe that the necessary foundations of classical voice are breath control, vowel specificity, and development of tone. Also, I always make sure my students are engaged and focused, and my goal is to help them achieve their personal goals. My least enjoyable experiences were when I had teachers who weren't tuned in to my specific needs and wants, so I make sure to always be attentive and accepting of my students. I also try to push my students to their greatest potential, and have students who have made it to Broadway and other successful arenas.

I began my training as a classical singer in high school, and I have spent the past decade training to be the best musician and classical musician as I possibly can be. I am a firm believer that a classical technique should be the basis of any kind of vocal training, whether or not a student's goals include singing classical music, because it is the healthiest, safest and most affective way of singing. With my experience as a singer and a vocal student and my knowledge of opera and art song, I absolutely love teaching classical voice!

Get a strong technical foundation. Build your repertoire. Prepare for auditions.

I am a classically trained singer, and I prioritize health above all else when teaching voice. As a soloist, I work with students to improve their abilities to sing confidently and technically efficient by themselves. I teach everything from standard operatic repertoire, musical theater (helping them get roles like Cinderella from "Into the Woods" and Gabriella from "High School Musical"), popular music, and much more. I love learning from my students and their interests.

I have over 20 years of experience singing and teaching. I have been around the world learning from the best in the business and have access to many performance opportunities for my students to try out their craft.
Vocal technique and also training in musical development is key and both must go hand in hand.

I began singing Aretha Franklin and Gladys Knight at a very young age, but eventually fell in love with classical singing, as well. I teach many genres, with an equal love for all of them, but with a healthy technique so your singing is supported, comfortable, and therefore more enjoyable to both the listener and the performer. I will tailor the lessons to your individual desires, but generally focus on breath support, placement, and style/interpretation.I also enjoy helping students find their range. I believe music lessons should be a fun place to explore and try new things!
