Classical singing for beginners, intermediate students

Àpd 99.88 C$ /h

I have had the opportunities to teach adult and children students throughout these few years, in my home country and here in the Netherlands. While I have always been positive and active in searching solutions with the students, I often expect students to be curious and persistent in the process, so as to have an optimal progress. For adult students, the lesson will be 60 minutes; while for children, it will be around 30 minutes. For beginning/ intermediate amateur singers that have basic knowledge of reading music.

About myself: graduated cum laude in 2020 at Codarts Rotterdam from the Master of Music (Classical Singing. Active performer in the field as concert soloist and choir singer. Recent award winner at an international singing competition in Germany.

Présentation

Positivity and healthy way of singing carry you through this musical journey. I wish to share my personal experiences as an active singer to help learners to develop a healthy singing philosophy and artistic sense. Not only do I want to discuss technical aspects that suits you, but also I would like to develop musicality with you together. In this way, you build not only your instrument, but also the ability to create something poetic and artistic.

Singing is fun, singing is easy, singing is good for you.
Discover a healthy way of using your voice and unlock its potential.
My method includes the understanding of how the larynx, jaw and tongue work and can be function freely, and how the breath flow can come through by using the correct support muscles, that we forget how to engage over our adult life, unlike when we were children. This should provide an effortless and beautiful sound that is your own unique voice.

Try it out!
I can help all who are interested in a healthy sound projection and who wish to find they individually in this.

I have a Bachelor in Classical Singing and a Masters in Early Music Singing from the Royal Conservatory of the Hague and 9 years of teaching experience. I am passionate about teaching, helping people achieving their true potential and I having fun doing it.

Employing the voice in a rhythmical sense is not a granted or obvious approach for singers and is sometimes overlooked by instrumentalists. However, a rhythmical foundation developed through the voice is a core element of strong musicianship for everyone in the music sector.

In these lessons, we will practice rhythm through the understanding and utilization of Konnakol (South Indian Carnatic rhythmical solfege) alongside other techniques and approach different ways to conceive of rhythm and integrate it into performance.

We will work on rhythmical freedom, phrasing, grouping and moving patterns, cross-rhythms, odd measures and different 'feels'. You will acquire new ideas, improve your timing, gain independence in your lines and obtain a set of tools to practice self-sufficiently.

"Rhythm through Voice" is designed for both singers and instrumentalists who want to enlarge their spectrum of techniques, and improve their rhythmical awareness.

[For instrumentalists: I will support you to translate and apply these techniques into your instrument]

The lessons will be custom made for each student.
I will work to adapt to your learning rhythm while keeping you challenged at the same time. You will receive regular feedback, advice, and guidance.

Don't hesitate to contact me for more details!

I am a recorder and classical singing student at the Royal Conservatoire in the Hague. I have experience with teaching the recorder to students aged 4 to 60 years old.

My lessons are characterized by a relaxed atmosphere and I find it important to listen to the wishes of my students and adapt my lessons to their personal needs. For the younger students, I aim to teach a combination of recorder technique and posture, music theory and singing and stimulate their creativity in a playfull way. In this way they become acquainted with all aspects of music making. I also aim to incorporate ensemble playing in my lessons, together with me or with other students.

Classes are given in Dutch, English, French, or Spanish. We usually do a bit of technique at the beginning of the lesson, and then work on the song(s) that you brought (expression and technique). It can be classical or pop. I can accompany you on the piano.
