Classical & Musical Theater Voice Lessons | Award-Winning TeacherTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Hello! Welcome to my voice studio. Whether you're exploring singing for the first time, refining technique you already have, or preparing for auditions and performances, I'm here to help you discover what your voice can do. Good singing isn’t magic... it’s about understanding your instrument, practicing smart, and building confidence over time. I focus on connecting what you learn theoretically to what you actually feel when you sing, so technique becomes intuitive, not confusing. My approach is encouraging, practical, and built to help your voice stay healthy and strong for life. HOW OUR LESSONS WORK Every student’s journey with me begins with a conversation about your goals and a gentle assessment of your voice, so that every subsequent lesson is tailored to where you are and where you want to go. A typical one-hour session includes about 30 minutes focused on vocal technique and 30 minutes working with repertoire, though we’ll adjust the structure based on what you need most at any given time. WHAT WE'LL WORK ON I will help you reach whatever your individual goals are. I can help you develop strong breathing and breath support, refine your tone quality and intonation, explore vocal anatomy, work on singing posture, expand your range and flexibility, harmonize your vowels, make stylistically appropriate choices, master proper diction and pronunciation in Italian, German, and French when applicable, build performance confidence, develop musical theater technique, and prepare audition materials. I also guide students on vocal health, injury prevention, repertoire selection and career development. MY CREDENTIALS I hold a Doctor of Musical Arts in Voice from the Eastman School of Music and will be joining the University of South Dakota as Assistant Professor of Voice and Opera in August 2026. I bring extensive performance experience in opera, art song, concert repertoire, and musical theater, combined with specialized training in vocal pedagogy and voice science. STUDENT TESTIMONIALS "This is my second year working with Joshua. I cannot explain the amount of gratitude that I have for his pedagogy and how much he has transformed my voice since I started with him. Joshua is on a completely different level of teaching. His practice techniques are never tedious/boring. Everything I wanted in a voice teacher and more." "Joshua does a great job at making lessons fun and friendly yet engaging, productive, and interesting. I love his unique vocal exercises and how he explains technique and how he is structuring our lessons around that theory of technique. Overall, Joshua is a fantastic teacher and has helped me progress tremendously in a very short period of time." "Joshua is an excellent teacher with a natural rapport and sincere enthusiasm towards the progress and success of his students. His standout qualities are his genuine care for his students, excellent teaching persona, and natural ability to create a supportive learning environment." FAQ Do I need any singing experience to start? 
No! Beginners are absolutely welcome. I teach students of all levels and adjust lessons to match your current abilities. What if I don’t know what songs I want to learn? 
I can suggest repertoire that matches your voice type and interests, or we can explore options together based on what you love to sing. How quickly will I see progress?
 Many students notice improvement within their first few lessons. Consistent practice between lessons accelerates progress significantly. Can I study both classical and musical theater? What about other genres? 
Absolutely! Many students enjoy exploring a variety of singing styles. I specialize in classical and musical theater performance, but we can focus on any genre according to your interests. What should I prepare before my first lesson?
 Just bring enthusiasm and an open mind! You may want to have some songs in mind that you’d like to learn, but this isn’t required.

My lessons are tailored to each student’s age, experience, and goals. Children (7–12 years old) For younger students, lessons focus on building confidence while making learning fun. We begin with simple vocal warm-ups and ear training to develop pitch and intonation, then move on to singing their favourite songs, encouraging good vocal habits in an enjoyable way. Teenagers (12-17 years old) With teenage students, we start with more structured vocal warm-ups and exercises. As we discover their natural voice, we work on developing a comfortable vocal range, improving technique, and applying these skills through songs that suit their voice and interests. Adults and seniors (18+) For adult students, lessons are usually divided into two parts. We begin with vocal technique, focusing on breathing, diaphragm support, scales, arpeggios, and intonation. We then apply these techniques through singing, helping you develop confidence, control, and healthy vocal habits. I will give you repertoire to study or we will study the pieces you have to prepare. The final goal will be to sing on a musical accompaniment. Every student learns at a different pace. Some may spend more time building a solid technical foundation before moving on to more challenging repertoire, and that’s perfectly fine. My priority is to ensure that every student feels comfortable, supported, and confident throughout their vocal journey. I teach children, teenagers, and adults and seniors from complete beginners to advanced singers. My classical training provides a strong technical foundation that can be applied to any musical style, whether you enjoy pop, musical theatre, jazz, rock, or classical singing. Whatever your age or experience, I’d love to help you discover and develop your voice. Let’s sing!

Opera Singing / Kids Vocality: pro Italian Opera Singer with decades of experience on stageTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Opera Singing / Kids Vocality: pro Italian Opera Singer with decades of experience on stageTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Hello! I’m Elena, I’m Italian and I’m an opera singer, currently actively performing in the contemporary field :) On top of my artistic career, which is now 20+ years old, I have 10 years of solid everyday experience in the musical teaching field, with particular regards for online teaching. My specialties are: teaching opera voice and kids’ vocality. For both of these, any level, even absolute beginner is 100% welcome! I’ve been training children and teens ever since I graduated from my position at La Scala children choir at 18 years old. I love working with kids, and it warms my heart to think of how many little faces I have already had the privilege of meeting thanks to this career. I have helped so many access to the children choirs of their respective cities, and with so many many others I have simply participated in their musical learning journey, which makes me equally proud and happy. Teaching adults is a completely different matter, of course, but it’s probably even more thrilling to me because it allows me to spend the day navigating the fascinating routes of lyrical singing technique. I know how opera studies can be confusing - to say the least; I try my best to represent a safe place for anybody who wants to explore this ancient form of art, as well as to clarify its key points and guide my students to building a correct repertoire. I give lessons for any kind of purpose: - learning music - improving musicality - preparing an audition - finding our own voice - overcoming insecurity Everybody is different, so everybody has their own path to go through; I cater my lessons to the pupil’s needs, and even if the method is always classical, I make sure that the hour of lesson is a fun moment as well as a learning experience. Music is life and life is fun! If what you have read interests you, I’m here to answer all your questions, so don’t be afraid: write me and I’ll see how I can help you! During the lesson, we will take the time to get to know each other better, assess levels and goals, and start to work on them already. I can’t wait to meet you!

“ As someone who loves singing it was very helpful in the very first lesson to begin to understand the muscles I need to use and the "spaces" I need to create to stabilise and improve my sound. I also felt she responded well to each question I raised, or issue she heard in the way I did the excercises. I look forward to future lessons. ”

“ I really enjoyed my lesson with Francesca. She has a bright appearance and uplifting energy and teaches very clear, practical and gives a lot of great tips in her lesson. She observes well and is on it. I could really feel the change in my singing, during the lesson. Excited to practice more and to book a new lesson. ”

“ Maria is an awsome teacher with a great singing technique and a gorgeous voice! I highly recomend her. After only 1 lesson, I could see a big progress in my voice. She is very well prepared for the lesson, kind, charming with great energy. She is very enthusiastic and passionate about singing and teaching. ”
