Vocal/Diction Coaching

Raffaele_Cipriano_coach3.JPG

  • Would you like to study opera roles and perfect your Italian diction with a native Italian coach?

  • Would you like to improve your musicianship and learn the performance practice of the opera and vocal repertoire?

  • Are you looking for a professional coach-pianist-conductor to prepare and win your next audition?

You are in the right place! Working with a native Italian coach is an invaluable opportunity to perfect your repertoire, learn the language nuances that you won't find in textbooks, and distinguish yourself in your upcoming audition. We will work on your repertoire addressing pronunciation, intonation, phrasing, expression, interpretation, and performance practice.
