MM in OPera Performance

    I started winning singing contests when I was in kindergarten!

    Learning to sing is both mental and physical! Learning to use ones body and develop beautiful legato and musical singing is the result I strive for for each individual student. Music of all styles and techniques are taugh: Opera, rock, jazz, blues and music theatre. Performance opportunities in the form of recitals and group singing is encouraged and enjoyed and brings about confidence and a feeling of accomplishment.

    About Jeanne D.

    5.0
    (2)
    I knew I was going to be a musician when I won a talent contest at the age of 4. Not because I was so great but because they gave me money! Needless to say I went on to study both piano and voice and later went to college on a scholarship. I earned three music degrees; BM in Vocal Performance, BM in Music Education and an MM in Opera Performance. I taught Vocal music, K-12 for 24 years and also have a private music studio in my home. I have performed in music theatre, opera, night clubs and even had some Rock and Roll! If it was music I wanted to experience it and somehow pass on what I learned. All students are unique and I consider their individuality a prize! Each one brings their own dreams and goals and God leads me to help them achieve them. I consider this a sacred trust. I am still studying piano and voice which I believe helps me be a better teacher! I also believe that the gifts that I have are meant to be used to help others. This is my calling and great joy!
