Lessons and Coachings

for Classical Singers

​​

Building a Strong Technique

​​

For classical singers, a solid and consistent technique is paramount. I will guide you in developing a healthy, reliable vocal technique that serves as the foundation for your artistry. Through personalized instruction, we will refine your strengths and build the confidence you need to engage audiences and convey the depth of your character.​

​

Achieving a Clear, Balanced Sound

A clear, balanced sound is crucial in classical singing. Good intonation and a clarity of tone are the cornerstones of excellent performance. My focus is on helping you achieve these essential elements, ensuring that your voice remains free of strain and able to express the full range of your musicality.​

​

​​

Selecting the Right Repertoire

​​

While the traditional fach system has its place, I believe in a more flexible approach to repertoire selection. Choosing pieces that truly showcase your unique voice is key to making a strong impression in auditions and performances. I will work with you to identify and perfect the arias and songs that best suit your voice, whether they are classic staples or lesser-known gems. When beneficial, we might also explore crossover pieces that highlight your vocal strengths.

​

​​

Strengthening Technique Through Exercises

​

Each lesson begins with targeted vocal exercises designed to reinforce your technique and deepen your understanding of healthy vocal production. I encourage my students to practice these exercises outside of lessons, fostering independence and self-awareness in their vocal development. My goal is to equip you with the tools to assess and improve your own singing.​

A Professional, Welcoming Studio

​​

The classical music world can be demanding, and my studio aims to provide a balanced environment where rigorous training meets a supportive atmosphere. I believe in honesty, especially with those pursuing professional careers, but I also ensure that my students feel safe to experiment and explore their vocal potential. Singing is a journey, and I am committed to being a constructive part of yours. My singing lessons in NYC are well-suited to students with a variety of goals. I also offer vocal coaching in NYC to students who need help with interpretation, diction, audition prep and more..

"Julian is an effective, supportive and creative voice teacher! In the time that we've worked together, I've noticed significant improvement in my singing. The techniques and ideas I've learned from Julian have been incredibly helpful when singing a range of music. I've also found that my confidence has increased tenfold because I've gained better control over my voice and how to sing in a healthy way thanks to our lessons. I would highly recommend him!"
