Many of my former students now perform Russian operatic repertoire in major opera houses, such as the Metropolitan Opera and the Washington National Opera.
Based on my first-hand knowledge of the history of performance of Russian song, I will introduce you to the vast operatic and chamber repertoire, as well as to the style, culture, and traditions of Russian music. I am able to do more than just teach diction. I will also teach you the difference between how the language is spoken and how it should be sung to properly project the meaning and the feeling of the text. I can help you to attain an authenticity that even Russian musicians will admire. You will see doors open to music that once seemed elusive for a non-Russian speaker. I am offering Russian Vocal Coaching training sessions using Skype to enable you to explore and master performance in this genre in the most professional and convenient way. I will provide coaching sessions via Skype in ½ hour increments at a special rate of $75 per hour, with payment accepted via PayPal. Participate in a free 15 minute consultation session to select an appropriate repertoire. I hope to see you online soon at www.chanteruss.com. Spasibo (Thank you)! Vera Danchenko-Stern
