About Laila A.
I am a professional singer, Shakespeare actor, and pianist that graduated from Southern Illinois University-Carbondale with a Music degree (which I attended on a full ride scholarship) where voice was my primary instrument and piano was my secondary. Currently, I am the assistant music director and alto section leader at a church while I pick up freelance gigs.
For you, I think the excitement and wonder in music all lie in finding deeper pieces of you. Instead of sticking only to classics, I encourage branching out of type and into the root of all the depth you can play, both on stage and on the bench.
Vocal styles: Broadway (specialty in assembling a "book" for auditions as well as audition prep); Classical/Opera (from art song to aria selection); Contemporary (I love me some Adele). We can achieve these styles through a foundation of breathing and technical exercises that will help you leap forward!
Piano styles: Classical, Baroque, Romantic (so many immortal composers have so many gems to explore!); Contemporary/Chords (for the rocker inside or for someone looking to gig). From improv to flying along the keys, we'll get there through a couple of technique books that are interesting (instead of dry scales) as well as practicing tips and tricks I have from over sixteen years of classical piano playing.
