Classical singing: train your voice and find freedom in performance
Do you want to learn how to use your voice to express emotions, embody characters, and communicate stories? Singing lessons are fun, rewarding, and scientifically proven to release endorphins! I will guide you through breathwork, vocal technique, using your whole body to sing, choosing repertoire, and tailoring performances to your strengths.
I am an experienced singer that couples teaching with freelance performance at Opéra de Dijon and Opéra du Capitol, Toulouse. As well as focusing on building strong and healthy technique that will enable you to sing for years to come, I offer all-around performance coaching to build you as a classical singer. This involves incorporating yoga techniques and body exercises that support the voice to achieve its effects, and offering dramatic coaching on repertoire in order to transform your vocal talent into authentic stage presence and in-depth characterisation. This can involve dealing with performance anxiety, straight fright, and physically preparing your whole body to sing. Whether you are getting ready to sing in choir at church, in a school solo, or just in your kitchen, we can work together to make singing fun and free, so that you can tackle the repertoire that makes your heart sing.
I specialise in training voices from 16+ and especially university-level singers ready to make the first steps into the profession, however anyone with a desire to sing is welcome for a lesson, regardless of experience.

Singing lessons with an italian lyric-coloratura soprano. From opera to modern and pop. (Masters degree in singing with honours, cum Laude)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!

Oud and oriental Arabic singing lessons with an experienced teacherExperienced teacher of Oud and oriental Arabic singing for over 11 years, I am Lebanese and currently residing in Germany. I studied for 8 years at the Lebanese National Conservatory. I taught at the Casa Beethoven Academy in Lebanon and gave private lessons. In addition, I was conductor of the Loubnan Assalam oriental orchestra for over 5 years.
My recommendation for learning the Oud is to start with the study of notes and musical notation before tackling pieces. Although some students prefer to play songs directly, understanding the basics of musical notation allows for faster progress in the long run. With determination and hard work, significant progress can be made in a year, allowing one to play simple melodies.
Please feel free to leave me a message, I will reply as soon as possible.

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.

Oriental Arabic Oud and Singing Teacher in GermanyIn our Oud class, I will guide you through everything from basic to advanced techniques. We will cover playing for all levels, correct left-hand use, synchronizing with the right hand, handling the pick, tuning the Oud, and effectively using a tuner and metronome. In the remaining time, we will dive into reading musical notes, starting with basic Solfege and progressing to advanced and oriental Solfege, including dictation exercises. This comprehensive approach ensures a well-rounded musical journey
My recommendation for learning the Oud is to begin by studying musical notes and notation before delving into songs. While some students prefer to jump straight into playing songs, understanding the fundamentals of music notation accelerates progress in the long run. Dedication and hard work can yield significant progress within a year, enabling you to play simple tunes.
Feel free to leave me a message, and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Modern vocal technique + body and brain training to develop and free your voice faster and easier!Did you know that there's a way to have instant breakthroughs in your singing, and to make your progress much faster and easier?
Of course we need to train the voice with singing exercises and vocal techniques and we will certainly be doing all those typical "voice lesson" things to train your voice. But the truth is that no matter how many singing exercises you do or how much you practice, if there are parts of your body and your brain that are saying NO, it's going to be very difficult to improve and impossible to reach your full singing potential.
You sing with your body, and everything you do with your body is controlled by your brain. That's why working in a neurological way with your voice and body alongside strategically tailored singing exercises is the key to your best voice in the shortest amount of time.
The best part is that in combination with singing exercises, or directly on the songs you're working on, we can test each body/brain exercise that we do to see immediate results. This way not only do you have breakthroughs in each lesson and progress faster, but you know exactly which exercises to do, specific to you, to unlock your best voice.
