Brazilian Singing Lessons – Voice Lessons with Portuguese Pronunciation

Àpd 49.34 C$ /h

Hello, my name is Virgílio.
I am a Brazilian lyric tenor, pianist and music teacher specializing in Brazilian vocal repertoire and I work as a vocal coach for singers interested in Brazilian music.

Brazilian music has unique rhythmic and expressive qualities, and learning it with a native Brazilian teacher helps singers capture the natural phrasing and pronunciation of the language. Many singers around the world love Brazilian songs but find it difficult to sing them with natural pronunciation and musical phrasing.
In these lessons, I help students develop vocal technique while learning how to interpret Brazilian repertoire such as Bossa Nova and MPB. Students may explore songs by composers such as: Tom Jobim, Chico Buarque, Caetano Veloso, Vinicius de Moraes and others.

Students do not need to speak Portuguese to start learning Brazilian songs. Lessons gradually introduce pronunciation and meaning of the lyrics.

Lessons may include:
• vocal technique
• Portuguese pronunciation for singers
• Brazilian repertoire
• musical interpretation
• rhythm and phrasing in Brazilian music

Brazilian songs often combine subtle rhythm, expressive phrasing and poetic lyrics, and understanding these elements is an important part of the lessons. Whether you are a beginner singer or an experienced musician interested in Brazilian repertoire, the lessons are adapted to your goals and musical interests.

Informations supplémentaires

Singing or piano students need to watch the lesson on the largest screen available to them, they should have a webcam and an adjustable stand to improve the viewing angle of the instrument or when singing standing up, and they should use the zoom with the "original sound of musicians" setting enabled.

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.

Do you want to know your vocal range? Learn how to sing higher notes without hurting your voice? Learn how to hit the passing notes? Achieve a powerful yet agile voice?
My name is Matteo Schifanoia, I am a songwriter, pop and jazz singer, and vocal coach with 20 years of experience in music. I offer singing lessons for all levels. My lessons focus on developing body, muscle, and vocal awareness, which helps us perceive and consider our bodies as musical instruments.
My teaching method is the result of the synthesis of my experience as a singer and the many and diverse study paths followed. The lesson is structured in two parts: the first half devoted to vocal technique, the second half to the musical repertoire and learning the musical language (jazz or pop or other genre).

The vocal technique that I propose is a basic technique for all types of modern singing: from postural education to the care of breathing, from the use of abdominal muscles, to the emission of air to the resonance cavities. We will work on the sound, on the extension of the voice, on the high and low notes, on the passage of register, on the control, on the power and agility.
From a repertoire perspective, the lessons will be tailored to the student's needs and interests, with an emphasis on proper stage presence and posture. I can prepare students for conservatory entrance exams and all types of auditions. If the student wishes, I can also provide instruction in harmony and music reading.

My classes are different depending on your level and age.

With children from 7 to 12, we start by doing easy vocalization and start training the ear with intonation, we then have fun singing your favorite songs.

With teenagers, I also start with some vocalization, a little more elaborate. Depending on the student's capabilities, we start establishing a comfortable range for them and then proceed to singing.

For my older students ideally, I divide our lesson into 2 sections. We work on respiration and how the diaphragm works. We do scales and arpeggios and work on intonation. We then proceed to singing and putting into practice our technique. Some students might need more technique before they actually sing, I like to take things slowly and make sure the student feels confident and comfortable singing.

I teach children, teenagers, and adults, from beginners to more advanced. Classical training enables you to sing in any kind of way, so don’t hesitate and let’s sing!

Hi!
I'm Leila, a French-Austrian opera singer, trained in France and Germany.
In my singing lessons, I focus on developing a healthy, sustainable technique, while helping students discover untapped potential and find fulfillment in singing. My approach is based on listening, physical awareness and flexibility, allowing the technique to develop organically and understanding what works best for each person individually.

As we work on pieces, I also focus on the musical aspects of singing such as intonation and phrasing, as well as the artistic dimension: expression, interpretation, language, and stylistic awareness.
Lessons take place in a comfortable, supportive atmosphere where curiosity and enjoyment are encouraged.
The goal is to help you get to know your own instrument more deeply, develop confidence, and ultimately find the greatest pleasure and freedom in singing.

My expertise as an trained French-Austrian opera singer, is in the opera repertoire going from baroque to modern, as well as german Lied, French songs, and classical musicals.

I am French, bord in London and my father is Austrian, so I'm comfortable teaching in all 3 languages.
I work with beginners as well as more advanced students.

Don't hesitate to write me if you're interested in taking lessons!

Je suis chanteuse et musicienne depuis plus de 20 ans. J’ai commencé très jeune avec une formation classique en chant, notamment au sein du Petit Chœur de l’Opéra de Paris.

Au fil des années, j’ai exploré différents univers musicaux : j’ai chanté dans un cabaret parisien, dans des groupes de rock, et sur scène dans divers projets musicaux. Cette diversité d’expériences me permet aujourd’hui d’accompagner les élèves aussi bien sur la technique vocale que sur l’interprétation.

Aujourd’hui, chanter est devenu mon métier et j’ai récemment sorti mon premier album.

Dans mes cours, j’attache beaucoup d’importance à transmettre la technique tout en gardant le plaisir de faire de la musique. Mon objectif est d’aider chaque élève à progresser, prendre confiance et trouver sa propre voix.

Mes cours s’adressent aux enfants comme aux adultes, débutants ou intermédiaires, qui souhaitent apprendre le chant ou le piano.

Ma particularité est de transmettre les bases musicales (rythme, oreille, solfège) directement à travers les chansons que vous aimez. L’objectif est de progresser de manière concrète et de devenir progressivement autonome pour apprendre et interpréter des morceaux.

Les cours peuvent être centrés sur le chant, sur le piano, ou sur l’accompagnement au piano pour chanter. Je privilégie une approche musicale et pratique plutôt que des cours de solfège théoriques.

Avec les enfants, les cours sont adaptés et ludiques afin de développer l’oreille musicale, la justesse et la confiance.

Chaque cours est personnalisé selon le niveau et les objectifs de l’élève.

Lors de nos cours, nous découvrirons votre voix et je vous aiderai à l’explorer. Grâce à mes années d’études en chant, j’ai acquis un solide bagage technique. J’analyserai vos besoins afin de vous accompagner au mieux. La confiance, l’écoute et la recherche seront nos piliers pour progresser ensemble. Nous travaillerons le souffle, le soutien, l’homogénéisation de la voix ainsi que son agilité à travers différentes vocalises. Avec les morceaux que nous étudierons, nous ferons le lien entre technique vocale, apprentissage d’une partition et interprétation. Le fil conducteur de mon enseignement sera le lien entre le corps et la voix.
