Voice

Age range: 8 years+

This class runs in 7-week terms (Private or Duo Class).

There is nothing more personal than the sound that only YOU can make. Finding and freeing this sound can be life changing. Time & time again I have seen the merits of class spill into other areas of a client’s life – self-belief, focus, regulation. When you visit Colla Voce you will be put at ease to share your sound & reap the benefits. Music can facilitate all sorts of exciting break throughs!

Private voice lessons build upon breathing, tone & vowel placement, understanding vocal anatomy and effective communication. Those attending have included public speakers, teachers & weekend giggers looking to build stamina and long-term vocal health as well as teens and adults who want to understand their voice for social enjoyment. Genres are led by students’ interests but regularly include Pop/Contemporary, Musical Theatre, Country, Irish, Classical & Jazz standards.

Classes can prepare students for:

  • Leaving Cert & Junior Cert Practical Exams
  • Vocal Graded Exams (RIAM/ ABRSM)
  • Audition and Performance Preparation

Colla Voce can also recommend local theatrical or performance groups, being a feeder school to many societies. Our annual showcase concerts are a major event in our calendar and year on year see friendships made for life.

‘Maeve, now 18, has been a student since she was 6 years old. Joanne’s expertise to challenge her students vocally, reaching very high standards, is astounding. She has given Maeve huge confidence and helped her achieve distinctions & awards for her singing. Joanne shares her energy & her love for singing and performance with everyone she meets! She is more than a teacher; she is a friend for life! Thank you so much Joanne for all that you do!’– Angela
