About
PLEASE SEND ME A MESSAGE BEFORE SCHEDULING A CLASS. MY CALENDAR IS NOT UP-TO-DATE. Professional Italian opera singer. I performed at the 171st Anniversary of the State Police in Turin, delivering a memorable vocal rendition.
Sang the Italian, French, and European anthems at the Bastille Day celebration held at Valentino Castle in Turin, an event organized by the French Consulate in Milan.
Organized and performed in opera and musical concerts tailored for preteens at the "Giuseppe Verdi" Music Conservatory, featuring selections from West Side Story, the famous duet from The Merry Widow, and other renowned pieces.
Performed Mozart's motet Exsultate Jubilate at the Open Day of the MAO Museum in Turin. In June 2021 I played as Fiordiligi in the movie "Anatomia del Desiderio" directed by Paolo Ciaffi Ricagno.
I have five years of experience teaching solfeggio, vocal technique and music theory privately. Thanks to my instruction, my students successfully gained admission to the music school. Beyond my musical career, I am also a skilled linguist, teaching foreign languages to students of all ages. My passion for languages enhances my singing, allowing me to perform in multiple languages with authentic pronunciation and expression.
I have accumulated a total of 1,000 hours of teaching experience in English, Russian, Romanian, and Italian on some of the most well-known language platforms. With my students, I work on the pronunciation of lyrics and refining phrasing in the score, as well as grammar and conversational skills in the specific language.
Teaching Style
I tailor my classes to meet each student's individual needs. We focus on accurate pronunciation of Italian and Russian lyrics from scores, as well as phrasing techniques. I provide guidance on effective vocal warm-ups and emphasize key aspects of vowel pronunciation. Additionally, I teach rhythmic exercises, sight-reading, and various solfège techniques, including the use of the setticlavio.
