Hi there! My name is Ariel and I am super excited to meet you! A little bit about myself, I am an active performer for opera, musical theater, and crossover that performs in the U.S. and internationally. I have my Master's degree in Vocal Performance and graduated in 2018. When it comes to teaching, I've been teaching private voice since 2015 and have had the absolute joy and honor of joining several students on their vocal journeys. My repertoire includes the following: -Rusalka (Rusalka|Dvorak) -Santuzza (Cavalleria Rusticana|Mascagni) -Jenny (Company|Sondheim) I hope together we can create some beautiful art!
My teaching dates back to 2015! Through real life performance experience and studying of the voice I have been able to pass down many skills and technique practices. My performance experience includes: -Resident Artist|Jun 2022 - Aug 2022 Opera Steamboat|Summer Festival Worked on the following shows: La Boheme (covered Mimi), Company (performed the role of Jenny), and Three Feathers (performed the role of Frog) -Young Artist|Sep 2021 - Oct 2021 Opera Company Middlebury|C/D Level House Worked on Tchaikovsky's Maid of Orleans and covered Joan and Agnes -Apprentice Artist|Jan 2020 - Mar 2020 Sarasota Opera|B Level Opera House Worked on the following shows: La Boheme, La Wally, Romeo et Juliette, and L'elisir d'amore
I cater each lesson to the student- no two students will be on the same track and that's ok. Each person, just like each voice, is very unique! I don't see a purpose in forcing a student to learn a piece they don't like. We are here to make music so collaboration is a huge deal for me. I want us to collaborate and make beautiful art together to the best of our abilities! :) I've been teaching students how to sing for over 8 years and my students have gone on to win statewide competitions, get leads in shows professionally, and even get into the top schools of their dreams on full talent-based scholarships.. Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to discover the foundation of your voice. We are going to play and make sounds and have fun! As time goes on you'll be able to start applying techniques and fundamentals to allow your voice to open up and be an instrument that you can trust and make art with. I specialize in classical and musical theater styles but teach all genres! I love working with students of all ages and experience levels and I can't wait to meet you!
I am a huge optimist when it comes to my teaching style. As I cater to each student, we will always celebrate the small wins! Singing is not a linear process but rather a journey that takes time and as long as you try, I will be right by your side rooting for you consistently to be the best you that you can be! In the journey of opening and discovering the voice, I remind students of the physical and mental advantages they can use in order for clear tones and healthy technique! With my teaching style, as long as you try, you will succeed!
