Singing classes given by professional singer and former Royal Opera House performer

Àpd 66.6 C$ /h

I am a professional singer in the classical and modern sense: singing in choirs, cathedrals, and churches for over a decade, I can teach the classical style (soprano/treble, alto, tenor, bass); and as a singer/songwriter, with many performances at public venues, I can teach the more conventional style of singing.

Regardless of style, I can teach my students the necessary techniques to bring not only the voice but the breath and diaphragm to their true potential. Like any instrument, progress is determined principally by consistency.

Online classes must take place in an area where the student can sing freely

Oral and aural have always been my strong suits, yet my time at university, as well as my ability to write in English – working as a copywriter and editor professionally – have honed my ability to teach essay structure and the more challenging elements within school and university levels.

Music Composition and Production (Logic Pro X) – Online classes

76.11 C$ /h

Music production and composition is a key skill for any musician looking to accurately translate what's in their heads into reality, alongside the continued development of their creative musical ability.

It can be very easy when composing song and chord structure to get caught in loops, repeating old patterns with little new. These can be subverted by new creative contexts, tapping in to unexplored areas. Additionally, a micro and macro learning of music theory will expand possibilities.

I can teach Production to an Intermediate level and Composition to an Advanced level. Classes will specifically cater to each individual student.

Native English and Spanish speaker, currently living in Madrid, tutoring all ages!

After ascertaining the level of my student, we engage in Spanish conversation at the start of the lesson, catching up on weekly occurrences. After identifying and correcting error prone areas, we move on to a reading and vocab-expanding exercises, where reading out loud in Spanish greatly improves accent, and vocabulary retention. The final parts of our class are dedicated to translating Spanish to English, after reading the section aloud, as well as revising weak areas, or areas that will be subject to tests.

With adult learners, we can focus on topics which fascinate the student alongside excellent books (classics and those within genres they like) to hand-craft an enjoyable and profound curriculum.

I teach in an easy-going and humorous manner, making learning Spanish an engaging and exciting prospect, in contrast to textbook-heavy approaches.

This structure serves as a base, and is moulded towards the needs of the student.

Singing lessons :
Graduate of the Brussels Conservatory in jazz singing (Master), I sing professionally and am pedagogue for 20 years now. I offer private lessons and semi-singing in Watermael-Boitsfort (corner of the broom).

INDIVIDUAL LESSON OF 45 OR 60 MINUTES
Classes are directed to the desires and demands of the student.
Here is what I propose ...

Voice technique: through vocalizations and other fun exercises, learn to use your body and your voice in an effective and healthy way.

Directory (or not): chosen by the student and the teacher. My preference goes to jazz and all its branches and roots (bossa, brazilian, blues, gospel, polyphony, ...) because it's for me the best training but I'm open and I sing myself (almost) every other styles ;-)

Improvisation: the best for the end :-) listening exercise, creativity, self-expression, voice and musicality. Through very progressive and clear exercises, we will explore (if the pupil desires) vocal improvisation.

90 and 120-MINUTE GROUP CLASSES
Rhythm Classes: Workshops in rhythm, body and voice.
Thursday (2nd Thursday of the month) 8pm-9:30pm at the center in Brussels

Our teacher using, if necessary, an electro-acoustic guitar to better accompany your voice and guide some of its subtleties, the teaching philosophy is adapted to each level, according to the pace of work and motivation.

Program :
- musical techniques: theory (examples: support, modes, colors, effects such as vibrato, etc.) automatically followed, for each of the exercises, by practice (examples: exercises focusing on accuracy, sound production, "mountains Russian ", time, note hold, diction, vowels etc.)
- work on breathing and breathing management
- body awareness
- stability
- resonance
- improvisation / free expression
- improved vocal comfort
- varied repertoire (adapting to your preference)
- well-being by the vibration of the voice
- personal or artistic development - accuracy, note keeping and precision - vocal modes including timbre
- volumes: softness and power - sound colors: from dark to light - vocal effects, range requirements - nuances: volumes, mimics, attitudes, sound quality - exploration of musical styles (folk, pop, classical, blues, rock, song, World music ...)
- improvisation, effects and vocal games, harmonies
-interpretation: work on emotions, body language, stage presence.

Objective: acquire a solid vocal technique allowing you to sing with accuracy, ease and expressiveness.

Musical learning meanwhile, will develop your ability to listen and reproduce music, your sense of rhythm, your expressiveness, your creativity and musicality as well as reading sheet music.

The work is focused on multidisciplinarity: voice, vocal health, music and bodily expressiveness, with an emphasis on the acquisition of an optimal vocal placement, on stress management in public and on interpretation.

This progressive and tailor-made method aims to develop your voice:
-Breathing techniques
-Vocalises and technical exercises adapted to needs;
- Repertoire work
- Accompaniment for studio recording and scenic performance
-dynamic exploration, diversification and release of one's voice while having fun and going beyond one's limits.

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!
