Vocal Workshop |
Cecilia
trained at both The Guildhall School of Music & Drama, London
(specialising in Jazz) and Leeds University. Her areas of expertise
are in Jazz, Pop, Song Writing and Performance. Alongside
her professional commitments as a singer, Cecilia is currently a vocal coach
and music lecturer at Bath Spa University, including regularly
contributing to the International Songwriting Festival at the University. Before
leaving London 4 years ago, Cecilia taught at the world-renowned Italia
Conti Academy of Performing Arts.
Her
international performance career as a vocal soloist has included The Barbican
Hall (London), The Bimhaus (Amsterdam), The Folkest Festival (Italy &
Slovenia), Café Concerto (Vienna), The Glastonbury Festival (U.K) and the 606
Jazz Club (London). Cecilia
strives to enable her students to find and develop their own unique voices as
she deems this to be a singer’s most valuable asset. Hence, her teaching
practice aims to develop singers as great ‘interpreters’ of song (and writers
where possible), opposed to ‘impersonators’. Her philosophy as teacher of the
human voice is first and foremost to establish a life-long commitment to
‘healthy singing’ and the attainment of excellent vocal health in order to
liberate, strengthen and protect the singing voice. Cecilia
is also a published songwriter and accomplished studio singer. |
