An opera singer espousing the Bel Canto technique, with more than 20 years’ experience herself, Margo teaches singing to a wide variety of singers of all ages (7-70+!), and experience, from total beginners to full time professionals and in musical genres ranging from Classical and Musical Theatre through Folk and Soul to R&B and even Rap! She believes that no matter what her pupil’s aspirations are whether just singing for their own pleasure, to join a choir, to improve their range or build their confidence, to prepare for exams, auditions or to keep their already high standards honed, all vocal projection requires the same solid foundations to work from. "If you compare singing to a tree, we all need the same strong roots and solid trunk”, you are then free to explore whichever branches your taste chooses to take you....whether, like an opera singer, you need every branch, twig and bud to fill an auditorium without the aid of amplification or prefer to use a little less."

Tuition



All lessons are individual, private and either face to face or remotely. For most students first lessons are structured; beginning with learning how to look after their vocal folds, some basic exercises and vocal techniques discovering what those do to develop your voice and then progressing to applying those to simple songs. After the basics have been covered most lessons are split evenly between technique and songs of the student’s choice, depending on the individual students requirements. If desired, lessons can be recorded digitally and transferred onto memory stick for private study practice at home.
