Groveport, OH Singing Lessons

Find your voice and sing your best! I love helping students to use their instrument (voice), to sing the styles they love. Whether it's rock, jazz, R&B, country, musical theater, or opera in a foreign language, we will work together using your favorite songs, warm-ups, and a few tricks to help you feel comfortable with your voice, and to reach your goals!

I am an Italian opera singer. I have almost twenty years as an international soloist, teaching private lessons and master classes in Universities. I also gave master classes internationally at the CNA (Mexico City 2009), the University of Guanajuato (Mexico 2012) and the University of Costa Rica (2013). My most important recent activities as a soloist include the American premiere of the chamber version of the opera DeCachetitoRaspado by Juan Trigos at the Rialto Center for the Arts in Atlanta with Bent Frequency Ensemble (2015). By the same composer, has been remarkable my participation as a guest soprano in the world premier and recording for iTinerant of the works Cantata Concertante No. 3 Phos Hilaron (2013), and Symphony N. 4 Nezahualcoyotl Icuicahuan (Songs of Nezahualcoyotl) for soprano and orchestra, with texts in Nahuatl by Nezahualcoyotl (2016), my participation as a guest soloist with the orchestra Carlos Chávez in Mexico City and at the Eastman School of Music of ...

I have been teaching Singing for about 10 years. My lessons involve warm ups, exercises, and technique to start the lessons. I like to get to know my students and once we determine what we are working on, we choose songs together that they would like to work on. We set up a plan or what they would like to work towards and create a vision together. My teaching style is laid back within structure and creative! I like to help students find their own individual voice and style.

I teach through Listening. Listening to your goals, listening to your passion, listening to your voice, listening for your pain points, and listening to your message. I lead the student to self-discovery and exploration using training, vocabulary, comprehension, and pedagogy. What emerges is a discovery of your true inner voice.

I love to sing, and so should you! In our singing lessons, I like to make the lesson specific to your individual needs and goals. We start with warm ups, focus on different techniques and styles, breathing/breath control, song choice, performance, and more!

Having the ability to sing can be a talent that comes easy for some and some may study and learn it, but it is an attainable goal for anyone.

Learn how to express your true self! Lessons will range from healthy singing technique, vocal exercises, ear training, and, of course, singing songs! Individual artistry will be emphasized, as each voice is different!

I use a combination of classical bel canto technique for foundational structure and concepts from the Estill method to assist with popular singing techniques. I have an excellent diagnostic ear for vocal timbre, classification, tensions, and other vocal maladies. I use imagery and concrete anatomy maps to help my students fully grasp singing concepts. I help my students explore the full gamut of vocal colors so that they can express whatever emotion serves them and the music!

1. Victoria guarantees progress in these 5 concepts of singing:

-Range (how high and low a vocalist can sing)

-Power (how impactful a vocalist can sound while maintaining healthy and sustainable technique)

-Stamina (how long a vocalist can sing without tiring or fatiguing AND how long a vocalist can hold an individual note/phrase without taking a breath)

-Freedom (removing detrimental tension and strain from the voice and body)

-Artistry (a vocalist's ability to effectively and authentically sing in any genre)

2. Victoria uses a professional recording studio to enhance/monitor student progress and gives students fully mastered/mixed recordings of the songs they work on in lessons.

"I believe anyone can sing; they just need to be given the tools to succeed."

Study singing with a WORKING Broadway singer/actor! I am a veteran of three original Broadway casts and two Broadway national tours, as well as dozens of regional productions across the country. Whether you're singing for your own enjoyment, doing high school or community theater, or auditioning for "Hamilton" in New York, I teach a healthy and versatile technique and will focus on your individual needs and goals! Singing should be expressive, dynamic, and FUN!
