Vocal Training with Alexander H.

I am a native of Evansville, IN and a recent graduate of LSU where I performed the roles of il Conte from Le Nozze di Figaro, Nick Shadow from The Rakes Progress, Taddeo from l’italiana in Algeri, Sweeney Todd from Sweeney Todd, and Manfred in Jake Heggie’s Farewell Auschwitz from his triptych Out of Darkness. Outside the university’s walls, I performed several roles and concerts with Opéra Louisiane including Samuel from Gilbert and Sullivan’s The Pirates of Penzance and Peter from Humperdink’s Hansel and Gretel. Most recently, I was an apprentice with Sarasota Opera for their Fall season and a Des Moines Metro Opera Apprentice Artist for the past two summers. *** Lesson Details *** I teach classical voice.

We will start our lessons working on posture and breathing, move on to correcting phonation problems, and then we will begin working on learning arias and songs. *** Studio Equipment *** Practice room: piano, music stand, additional seating for parents. *** Specialties *** Classical Voice, Opera
