Fort Washington, MD Opera Voice Lessons

I've been teaching opera voice for over 6 years and my students have gone on to audition for musical plays, pursue musical roles, win competitions, and record CDs. Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to breathe easier and have more freedom and as time goes on you'll be able to have a consistent, solid tone. I emphasize self-awareness and ask for feedback so that you know what to look for in your practices and performances. I love working with students of all ages and experience levels and I can't wait to meet you!

Please note: Age 12-17 will receive 30-minute sessions to be sensitive to the developing voice. Age 18+ will receive 45-minute sessions.

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.

Having had the training to sing Opera and performing in them, I understand how that is supposed to work and the amount of breath control that you need to do it well. If you are a beginner we will start off small and work our way up and if you and more of an intermediate singer, we will see how much farther we can get you to go.
