TEACHING

I have an extensive background in opera, and am an experienced singing teacher. I focus on operatic technique, working on breathing, freeing up the voice, body awareness, eliminating tension, extending vocal range, and increasing power.

I teach online. One-to-one online lessons are easy to set up, and are really effective. Best of all, you won’t have to leave the house. I have plenty of online material to aid the lessons; you will have access to this material when practising at home.

I teach adults of all ages, levels and aspirations. Whether your level is beginner or advanced; whether you want to become a professional singer, sing in a chorus, or whether it's just for fun, I will help you develop and improve your abilities. I trained as an opera singer and previously as a jazz singer, so I can teach a variety of styles.

In the course of 25 years' work experience in the opera world, I have worked with a wide range of artists, from the most amazing opera stars, to hugely talented young singers. If you want to pursue a career in this business, I am happy to give you my support and advice.

I trained as a singer at the Royal College of Music (currently Global No.1 institution for Performing Arts), and have 25 years' work experience in the opera world, in various capacities. I have been a professor at the Royal College of Music for several years, working with young singers on Italian repertoire. Some of the organisations I have worked for: Royal Opera House, Opéra de Paris, Royal College of Music, Glyndebourne Festival Opera, Opera North, Scottish Opera, Welsh National Opera, the Barbican Centre, Garsington Opera, Royal Academy of Music, Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama, Guildhall School of Music & Drama, Arcola Theatre, Opéra de Bordeaux, Opéra de Lille, Opéra de Metz, Opéra de Rennes, Teatro Verdi in Trieste, Teatro dell’Opera di Roma, London and Göttingen Handel Festival, Wexford Festival, Latitude Festival, BBC Singers.
