Classical Singing and Vocal Technique for All Levels
course price icon
From 80.49 £ /h
arrow icon
This course is for those who wish to learn how to sing and use good vocal technique. Although I am classically trained, I believe that anyone from any vocal genre can use good technique to further both their artistic pursuits and vocal health/longevity.

In this course, I will teach you how to sing (and support the voice), how to apply it to your repertoire, and will strengthen your musicality.

About Me
Thomas began his musical training at the age of 17 at the North Carolina School of the Arts in Winston-Salem with tenor Glenn Siebert. After private lessons with soprano Rebecca Cook-Carter, Thomas began performing in various roles in the community. His first major role was Papageno in Mozart's "The Magic Flute". He earned his Bachelor of Music degree at the renowned DePaul University in Chicago, Illinois, under the direction of tenor Michael Sylvester and Wagner soprano Elizabeth Byrne. Between 2013 and 2018, he sang roles such as Conte Almaviva in Mozart's Le Nozze di Figaro, Fabian in Joel Feigan's Twelfth Night and Frank Murrant in Kurt Weill's Street Scene. During this time, he also began to focus on oratorio, making his debut as bass soloist in Rossini's Stabat Mater, Mozart and Faure's Requiems and Handel's Messiah.

In 2020, Thomas moved to Zurich where he completed his studies with tenor Scot Weir with a Master of Music in Concert Performance. He is currently focusing on his freelance career and lives in Lucerne, Switzerland with his wife Laura, who is also a musician.

Feeling like you're not using the full potential of your voice? I'm a certified voice teacher and I can help you with that. I am part of a worldwide voice community, The Institute for Vocal Advancement (IVA) and I am regularly receiving training and being tested to be the best singing teacher I can be for you.

Some of the teachers in this community I am part of, teach big names of the music industry. I have learnt directly from them. That means that when we have a lesson, you will be getting the same training as stars like Brandon Flowers (The Killers), Seal, Dan Reynolds (Imagine Dragons), Barbara Streisand, Michael Jackson, Brendon Urie (Panic! at the disco) many broadway artists and singers from all possible music styles have learnt with.

In our lessons I will analyze your voice, define a goal for the lesson and trace a plan to achieve that goal. Then we will do vocal exercises that work almost like going to the gym, but for the muscles inside your larynx. Finally we will go through song application, and since I am also a singer/songwriter with a career of more than 10 years, I can help you with interpretation and stylistic choices.

I want to help you start loving all aspects of your own voice. Working with what you have and improving what you can improve, never forgetting the most important thing which is to enjoy the experience of singing.

Piano and Singing class.
I graduated at Prague Conservatory and traveled the world with my band on the cruise ship.
I have tons of experience with teaching children and i am the happiest around them.
We will go through the basics, music theory and all basics thing that are important for beeing able to play.
At my singing class, there is also a little bit of piano involved. I will explain you the breathing, we will talk about your body importance and i explain the technique.
In order to motivate my students, I always combinate important methodic things to play with their own favorite things to play. The same at my piano class.

I speak fluent English, my German is not the best, but i am working on it. I have also students, who dont speak English and we always make it work, actually it is a lot of fun.

Via webcam i only teach singing, not piano.

Hello Everyone!

My name is Daniel!

I am a South African/Swiss Singer, Composer and Arranger with a Bachelors degree in music.

As a singer, I can help you with fundamental techniques, vocal improvisation and performance - giving you the knowledge I have picked up from my time performing with multiple different types of ensembles as well as in the education sphere.

In my opinion, the most important thing any student can have is a straightforward set of approaches and techniques to practice so that they can tackle holes in their technique and knowledge to help them achieve their goals. As your teacher, I will make it my mission to help you find these approaches in an easy and digestible way so you can have consistent and significant progress as you strive to become a better musician.

As a Composer and Arranger, I can help you get to grips with Theory from the school to University level and share the Arranging and Orchestration techniques I've picked up during my university experience.

Excited to work with you!

Anyone can sing! If you want to start or improve your vocal development, I'm a certified voice teacher that can help you.

Having trained with the Institute of Vocal Advancement (IVA), I have learned from teachers who have taught broadway stars and bands such as The Killers and Imagine Dragons. The same singing techniques that were taught to them, I will teach to you!
I am also continuously training and developing my teaching to ensure I will be the best teacher for you.

When we have a lesson, I will listen to your voice and shape the lesson to meet your needs, your desires and be individual to you. Every lesson I teach is different because every voice is different. The exercises we do in the lessons will strengthen and train your voice, allowing you to sing without strain, discomfort or fatigue.
Finally I will use what we have done to help you sing the songs you love!

Singing is about your voice, your passion and your style. With my style of teaching, I am able to teach all style of singing. I can't wait to encourage you on your vocal journey and help you fall even more in love with singing.

I'm looking forward to our lessons!
