About Me

Throughout my musical formation I was very lucky to have great teachers who imparted their knowledge of singing and vocal technique. As professional vocalist and performer, I feel grateful for the training I have received. In my own teaching, I strive to be able to do the same for my students regardless of whether or not they seek a professional career in Music. Anyone can benefit from learning to sing, regardless of age or level of experience. Singing is physical training, and learning to sing can be a lesson in patience, as well as discipline and resolve. It is also a lesson in opening up emotionally and spiritually and can prove to be a liberating practice which can help to develop confidence and self esteem. I love to teach singing as much as I love to sing, and it would be my pleasure to help you train and discover your singing voice.

TEACHER / TRAINER

Trained in Grandes Ecoles in France and the United States (Ivy League University), our teacher has specialized and has been working for more than 15 years, in North America and Europe, in the field, in international establishments renowned, and oriented on one axis: effective training with pedagogy and meticulous methodology as the watchwords.

PLACES, FEES
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

My teacher's credo

As an opera singer, I have had the opportunity to perform on international stages while continuing to teach, which is a true vocation for me.

In vocal pedagogy, I believe that each student is the bearer of a unique instrument: their voice. This is why it is essential to adapt teaching and methodological tools to the individuality of each student. This approach allows me to conduct my classes in a variety of ways, choosing the most relevant vocal exercises or repertoire pieces to reveal the individual potential of each voice.

My technique is based on:

* in-depth breathing exercises,
* awareness of the whole body as an instrument,
* understanding the biological principles of breathing and its artistic role,
* the development of a free and resonant vocal emission.

My main objectives are to:

* maintain a feeling of high vocal position, awareness of resonant cavities in singing,
* work on the purity and continuity of vowels (legato), work on diction (Italian, German, French, etc.)
* gradually develop the tessitura,
* harmonize and balance the different vocal registers.

Finally, I place great importance on the student's personal development. Building a voice also means supporting an artistic personality: this involves guiding each student toward a repertoire adapted to their stage of vocal development, while nurturing their sensitivity and self-confidence.

I have been teaching music for 15 years. I teach all styles. I work a lot with body awareness, improvisation and what each student needs and for their personal growth.
The vocal technique that I use seeks the naturalness of the voice and body relaxation. I combine it with Yoga exercises to make it a complete job.
On the piano I teach classical and popular (American cypher) and music reading.

Karnatic Song & Music

Getting started with Karnatic singing (south Indian music) means discovering a very rich musical world vocally, melodically and rhythmically.

What characterizes Emmanuelle's approach is to approach voice work above all else. Whatever the melody, the raga, the composition, there is no point in singing if the voice does not emerge from the right place within oneself. Adopt a correct, grounded, stable and relaxed posture.

The voice that sounds fully reflects the dimension of being.

What does it really mean to listen? It is becoming aware of the sound space occupied by the tampura*, listening to the swaras (notes), oneself, others in an internal attitude of welcome.

Ragas (melodic modes) are like living, dynamic beings, in perpetual change. Discovering a raga is like meeting a new person, little by little their personality is revealed, a dialogue is established. The relationship between the raga, the one who sings it, and also the one who listens to it becomes a living act that continues to evolve.

As for the swaras (notes), it is a question of seeking precision and paying attention to their “right place”. Finally, whether it is a vocal exercise, a composition, an improvisation, it is the tala (rhythmic cycle) which gives the essential structure.

*Tampura: a plucked string instrument from India that supports the melody of another instrument or singer by providing a continuous harmonic drone.

I work with aspiring artists who want to turn their ideas into real, high-quality tracks — not just theory, but practical results.

In my lessons, we focus on music production from an artist’s perspective: building beats, arranging songs, improving sound quality, and developing a creative workflow that fits your style. I also help students understand songwriting, basic music theory, and how to use the piano as a tool for composition and production.

If you’re interested in releasing your own music, I can guide you through the fundamentals of music distribution and promotion so you understand how to prepare your tracks for streaming platforms and grow as an independent artist.

My lessons are practical, supportive, and tailored to your goals — whether you’re just starting out or already making music and want to level up with guidance from a working artist.
