Zoë Simone García

Hello! My name is Zoë García, and I am a classically trained soprano, and music educator. I hold a B.M. in Vocal Music Education from St. Olaf College, and am currently in my second year of M.M. in Classical Vocal Performance from CSUS Sacramento, studying with mezzo-soprano Julie Miller. I have experience in choral singing/conducting, performance, vocal pedagogy, piano, music theory, musicology, and other related fields. On the rare occasion that I am not singing, I enjoy dancing and creative writing. Sharing music with others is my greatest love, so it is a joy for me to work with all of you! 

My mission is to guide singers to gain foundational skills such as: music literacy, an increased understanding of the anatomy of the voice and vocal health, and development of breath support for healthy, legato singing. While my instruction is primarily rooted in classical techniques, I encourage students to explore a diverse range of musical genres, prioritizing music that ignites their enthusiasm. I recognize that singing can be a vulnerable and intimidating experience, so I strive to bring patience and positivity to each lesson. I am highly adaptable and responsive to the individual needs and aspirations of my students, endeavoring to provide varied support to accommodate diverse learning styles. Most importantly, I strive to help students find the love of music, and develop their own confident voice as a singer, artist, musical storyteller, and as a human being!
