My teacher's credo

As an opera singer, I have had the opportunity to perform on international stages while continuing to teach, which is a true vocation for me.

In vocal pedagogy, I believe that each student is the bearer of a unique instrument: their voice. This is why it is essential to adapt teaching and methodological tools to the individuality of each student. This approach allows me to conduct my classes in a variety of ways, choosing the most relevant vocal exercises or repertoire pieces to reveal the individual potential of each voice.

My technique is based on:

* in-depth breathing exercises,
* awareness of the whole body as an instrument,
* understanding the biological principles of breathing and its artistic role,
* the development of a free and resonant vocal emission.

My main objectives are to:

* maintain a feeling of high vocal position, awareness of resonant cavities in singing,
* work on the purity and continuity of vowels (legato), work on diction (Italian, German, French, etc.)
* gradually develop the tessitura,
* harmonize and balance the different vocal registers.

Finally, I place great importance on the student's personal development. Building a voice also means supporting an artistic personality: this involves guiding each student toward a repertoire adapted to their stage of vocal development, while nurturing their sensitivity and self-confidence.

Each lesson begins with body awareness and posture, coordination and freedom of movement. We then "awaken" our breath to establish deep, low diaphragmatic breathing.
Vocal work begins with phonation exercises to connect breath and vocal production, and vocal exercises to place one's voice.
The second part of the lesson is devoted to singing a piece and its interpretation.

I also support you in preparing for your auditions and competitions,
offers coaching to learn how to assert yourself and gain confidence and stage presence.

I regularly organize sessions with a pianist to sing along to the pieces I've worked on!

➤ So, how do you listen and be listened to, convince/persuade and be impactful, challenge and leave an impression, enhance your content, address your audience relevantly and optimize the quality & clarity of the exchange/message? It is precisely a question of going through, applying and deploying practical and effective techniques of oral presentation, simple intervention or 'one to one' exchange, aiming to challenge one's audience or interlocutor, taking care of both the content and the form. , all in a professional or personal setting. Here again, there is a range of precise verbal and non-verbal communication techniques which, once modernized and brought up to date, will be put to the service of your reality. Allowing you to move from fear to pleasure in front of the public.

➤ Thus, mastered, the practical method allows, through a set of simulations and scenarios based on your daily experience supporting pragmatic & concrete techniques, to improve self-confidence, self-assurance, ease by overcoming discomfort and controlling his emotion in public. But also to work on your leadership & charisma, in a context where empathy and emotional intelligence are at the service of communication.

✓Relate their communication objectives (project, institution, values, ideas, demands, etc.) to the form of their expression.

(...)

➤ In addition, you will leave with concrete and immediately useful tools, developed in the form of practical lightning modules: learning to say no, getting a delicate message across, selling an idea, expressing disagreement with an authority, getting a "yes" without upsetting someone, resisting the pressure of a too-quick "yes", calming someone who has taken your words badly (...).

➤ In short, public speaking skills are now an essential cross-functional skill for asserting oneself, informing, negotiating, and persuading. However, to master the keys to successful public communication, it is necessary to enhance the impact of one's own speeches: by structuring one's interventions and taking into account the circumstances and the audience's expectations; by making a lasting impression through storytelling; by integrating the psychological and emotional factors of effective oral communication; by incorporating emotions into the preparation of the message and arguments; by anticipating objections and delicate situations; by preparing and structuring an engaging and convincing presentation outline; by experimenting with the rules of improvisation; and by appropriately managing difficult situations (...).

➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practical exercises adapted to your everyday situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live, to have an external perspective and areas for improvement) , so that you will be able to apply them immediately, and from the first session.

➤Progress following these sessions is noticeable from 2 to 3 sessions (*study 2026).

➤ Make your words a formidable asset. Ready to take things to the next level?

I trained as a pianist from the age of 5 and then as an opera singer, I discovered opera and fell in love with it!

I decided to settle in Italy, the cradle of singing, and graduated with a Master's degree from the Florence Conservatory. I then secured soloist contracts in various opera houses across Europe, including the Teatro Verdi (Florence) and Teatro Pavarotti (Modena) in Italy, the Alfredo Kraus Auditorium and the Seville Opera House in Spain, the Sofia National Opera (Bulgaria), and others.

In parallel, I am training to be a stage director; I have worked in particular at the Paris National Opera and the Madrid Opera.

I had the pleasure of accompanying my students in preparing for their auditions for the Maîtrise de l'Opéra comique, the Conservatoire national de Lyon, the Berlin Opera etc... They succeeded!

I trained as a pianist from the age of 5 and then as an opera singer, I discovered opera and fell in love with it!

I decided to settle in Italy, the cradle of singing, and graduated with a Master's degree from the Florence Conservatory. I then secured soloist contracts in various opera houses across Europe, including the Teatro Verdi (Florence) and Teatro Pavarotti (Modena) in Italy, the Alfredo Kraus Auditorium and the Seville Opera House in Spain, the Sofia National Opera (Bulgaria), and others.

In parallel, I am training to be a stage director; I have worked in particular at the Paris National Opera and the Madrid Opera.

I had the pleasure of accompanying my students in preparing for their auditions for the Maîtrise de l'Opéra comique, the Conservatoire national de Lyon, the Berlin Opera etc... They succeeded!

Hi! I’m Joseph (Jossy Dee) on Spotify, Apple music & all streaming platforms, I'm a music producer and professional artist with hands-on experience creating and releasing original music. I work with aspiring artists who want to turn their ideas into real, high-quality tracks — not just theory, but practical results.

In my lessons, we focus on music production from an artist’s perspective: building beats, arranging songs, improving sound quality, and developing a creative workflow that fits your style. I also help students understand songwriting, basic music theory, and how to use the piano as a tool for composition and production.
