I am aged 35 and originally from Italy, now based in Southend (England) where I work and live. I have always loved expressing myself though different arts and I have worked as a singer for several years, performing in private and public events. Currently, I am employed in the early years sector as an IQA, however I regularly practice singing, write songs and play guitar (beginner level).
I am experienced in singing solo and in choirs, mainly A Capella and always as a high soprano. I am able to sing with and without vibrato, reaching sounds reliably, clearly and with control in the upper register (E, E6). I have an excellent hearing and intonation. I learn parts very quickly and find it easy to create harmonies. I sing in a variety of styles, such as Gospel, Pop, Jazz, Classical and Rock.
I studied Opera with Maesto “E. Fiumanò” (2014), learning to read parts and to create different sounds using a variety of techniques.
I sang for the following choirs and vocal groups (references available on request):
“G.Mazzini” choir, Conductor M. De Matteis, form 1999-2001
“Maurolico-Seguenza” choir, Conductor Maestro G. Mirabile, from 2003-2006
“I Mirabili” choir, Conductor S. Mangraviti, from 2007-2012
“I Fonè” choir, Conductor G. Cascio, from 2012-2014
“Evoke” choir, Conductor V. Ely, 2017
“BBC Symphony Choir”, Conductor N. Ferris, 2017
“The Fifty” choir, Emma Lindsey, 2022 - Present
I’ve been singing for different bands in the past (Hush, The.Bains). Now writing songs of my own, I’ve been recently published by Contrappunto on Spotify with “Scent of Home” (Nov 2022).
