1-1 Singing Lessons (Classical), with optional Music Theory

Von 71.67 $ /Std

Private, 1-1 singing lessons offered both online and in-person, for lengths of 30, 45 and 60 minutes as determined by the student.
You will learn the basics of classical singing technique, including advice on breathing and support, avoiding tension and overall sound projection. You will also get language help and tuition to help pronunciation of your music. You will learn how to become a better stage performer and grow in confidence as a singer. If you wish, I can also help with tips for improving sight-singing, and with music theory.
I am a professional countertenor, and a graduate of the Royal College of Music (MMus) and St John's College, Cambridge (BA Hons in Italian and French). I was a finalist in the Kathleen Ferrier Awards at the Wigmore Hall in 2024, and have performed as both soloist and chorister in concert venues all around the world, including the Amsterdam Concertgebouw, Singapore Esplanade, Royal Festival Hall and Royal Albert Hall.
I have trained choirs with members ranging from 10 years old to over 70, so am able to teach any age as required and help with any vocal issues you may be having. As a former chorister at the King's Chapel of the Savoy, and the BBC Radio 2 Young Chorister of the Year in 2011, I know what it is like to be a young singer, so can help your child grow in confidence to meet their singing goals.

Über mich

I am a professional countertenor and graduate of the Royal College of Music and St John's College, Cambridge. I have performed in venues all around the globe as both soloist and chorister, including making my Wigmore Hall debut earlier this year in the finals of the Kathleen Ferrier Awards, and have been described by Gramophone Magazine as a 'countertenor star of the future'.
My teaching is quite technique focussed; I aim to get the best possible sound from you in the most efficient way through breathing work and tongue placement in the mouth. However, as a performer, I also aim to help with any performance anxiety and to offer advice on performing, particularly to novices. As a young teacher, I aim to be vibrant and bubbly in lessons, but of course do expect my students to put in the time to practising after the lesson, and I will provide exercises for them to do.

I also teach music theory, and beginner piano lessons.
