Singing lessons in Yverdon: vocal technique and interpretation – All repertoires – Specialization in early music
From 96 Fr /h
• Do you like to sing, do you want to tame the possibilities of your voice?
• Are you part of a choir and would like to gain vocal comfort and autonomy?
• Do you need coaching to work on your stage presence, your diction, your interpretation?
• Do you want to discover the vast vocal repertoire of early music?
I would like to help you move forward on the long and mysterious path of the voice. Let's meet to learn together around this fascinating and multifaceted instrument, both the most universal and the most intimate.
MY VISION OF TEACHING
Trained as an opera singer, I have been teaching students of all ages and levels since 2015, individually or in small groups.
I know the classical repertoire well, and also the so-called "old" music.
But I'm interested in all styles: musical, variety, traditional...
For me, teaching singing is:
• stand next to the student, look with him/her to see what the obstacle is, and look for solutions together to overcome it.
• always show kindness, empathy, patience, non-judgment. I ensure that these values are present in every lesson I give.
COURSE DESCRIPTION
Audience: adults, teenagers from around 13 years old.
(For younger children, you can contact me to discuss it).
Course of a typical lesson:
• Part 1: warm-up and technical exercises (posture, breathing, resonances, phrasing, etc.)
• 2nd part: work "in context" on a piece (recovery of technical elements, diction of the text, interpretation)
Individual lessons or in small groups (2 to 4 people).
If you have any special requests, please let me know.
If you don't know how to read music (this is the case for a number of my students): that's not a problem! There are plenty of ways to learn and progress.
MY MUSICAL CURRICULUM
My background is quite eclectic: after a university course in art history and archeology in France, I studied at the Haute École de Musique de Genève-Neuchâtel where I obtained a Master's degree in Concert in lyrical singing. .
I acquired, during my studies and my professional activity, a lot of experience of choral practice, and I was able to attend many choir conducting classes.
Finally, I had the opportunity to specialize in early music: Gregorian chant, medieval music, Renaissance polyphonies, 17th and 18th century baroque music, ornamentation, notation, theoretical treatises, facsimile reading...
In summary, I like things that are off the beaten track!

About Me
Florence, soprano singer
Florence begins music from childhood. Enrolled in the music school of her hometown, she plays the guitar, the cello and sings enthusiastically in the children's choir. At the age of fifteen, she accidentally discovered opera singing, which would become her true instrument.
After university studies in archeology, Florence decided to devote herself professionally to the practice of music. She joined the Haute École de Musique de Genève-Neuchâtel where she obtained a Bachelor's degree and then a Master's degree in opera singing in 2016 in the class of Jeanne Roth.
During her studies, Florence also sang in Celso Antunes' choral conducting class between 2011 and 2018, which shed new light on voice pedagogy and choir practice. Finally, she assiduously frequents the Center for Ancient Music in Geneva: among others, she benefits from the advice of Gabriel Garrido and Leonardo García Alarcón for the interpretation of baroque music.
She performs in concert, as a soloist or in choral formation, within various ensembles in French-speaking Switzerland and in France (La Sestina, L'Horizon Chimère, Novum Castellum, Le Ridotto, Alkymia...). She notably sings polyphonies of the Renaissance, baroque music, the choral repertoire of the 20th century, and oratorio.
On stage, Florence also likes eclecticism: she plays the role of Musica in Claudio Monteverdi's Orfeo, or the character of Lucy in the musical show "Dracula, drinker of sounds".
Since 2015, Florence has been teaching singing in various contexts. In addition to individual lessons, she also supervises group work sessions for several vocal ensembles in the Lake Geneva region (Geneva, Cossonay, Le Sentier) and develops her activities as a choir director. Combining versatility, pedagogy and artistic sense, choral direction is a logical evolution of her career as a musician.
