The 3 Personas
I believe that every singer is a unique blend of three key personas: the Vocalist, the Musician, and the Actor.
The Vocalist focuses on vocal technique, aiming for a sound that is powerful, beautiful, and free.
The Musician brings the written score to life, expressing the music through interval and rhythm.
The Actor digs into the text, subtext, and character development to create a compelling interpretation.
While each of these areas could take a lifetime to master, the real artistry comes from learning to balance all three within yourself.
In our work together, I’ll help you strengthen each of these personas so you don’t have to rely on just one.
We’ll build solid vocal technique rooted in freedom of breath, healthy vocal fold function, and supported tone.
We’ll develop musicality through deep score analysis and style discussion,
and enhance your performance skills with tools that help you stay grounded while communicating clearly—whether on stage or in audition.
I offer voice lessons and performance coaching for beginners to professionals, both online and in person (Zaandam, Amsterdam, Haarlem).
Let’s grow your toolkit to uncover the confident, versatile performer you want to be!
