Voice Teaching (Classical and Musical Theatre) All levels

I am a professional opera singer, currently studying a Master's at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. Having performed numerous operas, oratorios and song recitals, I have a in depth and far reaching knowledge of the classical vocal repertoire and a good command of the musical theatre repertoire. Whether you are using it professionally or for fun, I am a strong believer that establishing excellent technique is essential to developing a voice. I work from the premise that no two voices are the same and I tailor lessons to suit my students. We will work on technique, repertoire, interpretation and, where appropriate, language skills.
Together, we can work on building a healthy voice and compiling a book of repertoire to help you prepare for exams or recitals. The aim of a lesson is to achieve vocal freedom, which will allow the student to approach repertoire healthily and confidently without fear of the voice giving out. Whatever age, skill level or intention for using the voice, this will ultimately make singing more enjoyable!
I have experience coaching choirs and working with young people, particularly with Cambiata North West. I have given masterclasses and singing days, most recently at Saffron Walden County High School.
If you would like to organise a lesson, please do not hesitate to contact me via the details on the 'Contact' tab. During the COVID - 19 lock down and social distancing period, I will be teaching remotely via Skype and Zoom.
As well as singing tuition, I am also happy to tutor music theory and academic music programmes up to and including A-Level Music. For young people, the aspects of performance and study go hand in hand and I believe it is important to offer support in all aspects of music!

About Me

Hi there! I'm Jack I'm originally from Manchester, but now I live in London and study as a Master's student at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. Until 2019, I studied at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire. Before I became a singer, I was a musician only for fun and I played guitar and sang in a few bands. Originally, I wanted to go into class-room teaching, particularly history and politics, but after singing Jean Valjean in a production of Les Miserables, I started training to be an operatic tenor. Recently, I was awarded the Mario Lanza Opera Prize, the By Voice Alone Young Artist Development Award and I was a finalist in the Kathleen Ferrier Bursary for Young Singers.

My repertoire is varied and far-reaching. My operatic roles include Tamino (Mozart's Die Zauberflöte), Henry Crawford (Dove's Mansfield Park - composed in 2011), Raoul de Gardefeu (Offenbach's La Vie Parisienne), La théière (Ravel's L'Enfant et Les Sortilèges), Frederic (G&S Pirates of Penzance), The Defendant (G&S Trial by Jury). I have also performed in opera scenes as Rodolfo (La Bohéme), Alfredo (La Traviata), Don José (Carmen), Essex (Britten's Gloriana), Albert Herring (Albert Herring), Fritz (Mascagni's L'amico Fritz), Rodrigo (Verdi's Otello) and many more!

My Oratorio repertoire consists of all the standard choral works (Such as The Messiah, Mozart Requiem, Mozart C Minor Mass, The Creation, etc) and I perform them regularly all year round. I also perform lots of song repertoire - complete song cycles include Britten's Winter Words, Vaughan Williams' On Wenlock Edge and Songs of Travel and Poulenc's Deux Poemes de Louis Aragon, amongst others. My singing has taken me around the UK and to Venice and Malta. I have performed at Manchester's Bridgewater Hall, Birmingham's Symphony Hall and London's Barbican Hall.

I have always had excellent teachers and, for me, the technique is the most important aspect of singing as it allows us to use our voice to its full capacity. I love teaching and seeing my students achieve their full potential - this puts a massive smile on their face!

Using jazz music as my specialism, I am able to teach even the most technically challenging concepts in their most basic forms and transfer them to the guitar in their most simple terms. I have taught the guitar, music theory and GCSE and A-Level Music syllabuses for six years to students of all ages and abilities and across every imaginable genre.

Tamara
Teaching Music and Basic Music Theory for children
Music is a valuable skill that aids learning in other fields too. I would teach basic music theory, and children's music, introducing basic music concepts. I have also attended a music conservatoire from Sept 2016- Aug 2021, playing the cello, and so can teach this for grades 1-3.

Kathryn
Private Tutoring for Piano, Keyboard, Voice or Yoga
Music has always been a huge part of my life and I would be thrilled to pass on my knowledge. I studied music at university and have Grade 8 in both piano and vocals, but I have also performed in many different venues across the UK. I have helped previous students with stage-fright and anxiety with performing as well as aiding them learn their favourite songs on piano - and singing along at the same time. I can teach in many different piano styles from popular music to classical and I can also teach music theory. I have a deep passion for traditional, holistic yogic practises and I understand that large classes can be overwhelming. I have found that Yoga is very individual, and with gentle 1:1 guidance, has lots room for personal growth. I can teach poses, breathing techniques and meditation to help us feel the best we can. All my lessons will be tailored to each student, we will discuss together the goals of the practise, and provide the balance of learning, but also making it fun and enjoyable and a space to relax.

.......Ana is also passionate about teaching. She was the baroque strings coach at the inaugural edition of the Novi Sad Baroque Academy, where she presented a mixture of teaching methods incorporated with historically informed performance practice. In October of 2021 she joined the Herne Hill Music Studio in London as one of their tutors. She enjoys teaching students of all levels and ages, and is always willing to exchange knowledge, seeking new exciting and productive ways of learning. She has explored educational psychology, as well as Feldenkrais and Alexander Technique, visualization and different teaching schools. Having studied 2nd-study piano at her music college as a compulsory requirement, she is able to guide children to take ABRSM graded piano music exams too. The students’ happiness, acquisition of new knowledge and musical improvement are the most important things to her. Diana Cummings, the LRAM programme supervisor at the Royal Academy of Music in London, said: “Ana gave a detailed and very well-presented analysis of the baroque viola, the comparison with modern viola and how it could be taught. You have a very analytical mind and think through all the elements of teaching effectively and constructively. You are a most promising teacher, and you are exploring your potential with great enthusiasm. Well done.” ...
