About Shelley J.
Hello! My name is Shelley, and I am an opera singer working internationally. I give lessons in singing technique and repertoire, and I am passionate about spreading the love of music through singing in a freer and easier way.
I teach all levels, from the very beginners to very advanced, both children and adults, and my core principles are breathing, alignment, placement, and most of all joy!
I would love to help you find your authentic voice, from working on exercises to suggesting repertoire, and I can work in a variety of styles. I am also a pianist, so I can help you along in studying music or theory as well.
For those interested in opera careers, in the past couple years I have sung the roles of Tosca, Anna Bolena, Manon, Mimi in La bohème, Tatyana in Eugene Onegin, and Donna Anna in Don Giovanni, among others throughout Europe. As a proessional performing singer, I can offer career consultations as well, particularly for those interested in the classical fields.
