Testimonial by Thomas Price

"I have been a student with Emanuela for three years. When I first went for lesson I sung quite nasally, and would be scared of any note above C3, straining and avoiding. Emanuela over time has helped me to understand my voice, the vocal muscles and position.
From the lessons I've received I gained confidence and my voice developed very quickly as we studied all different arias, and vocal types such as baritone and countertenor, and even a little bit of sopranism.
I liked to surprise Emanuela by wanting to study new and challenging songs and characters, and she always taught me how to sing these things safely and effectively whilst maintaining the "colour" of my voice.
My voice has improved drastically since studying with Emanuela, my range has grown and so has my confidence and agility.
I have loved working with her for those years, a great teacher and an amazing friend, 100% supportive of her students and extremely honest. I look forward to meeting up every time I come home."

TESTIMONIAL of the 31/8/2012
"I have known Emanuela for just over 2 years. During this time I received singing lessons on a weekly basis. The areas covered were: breathing techniques, vocal projection, vocal technique and pronunciation. Emanuela broke the skills down, ensuring that I understood what was expected of me to achieve results.
Emanuela used constructive criticism, praise, encouragement, and lots of enthusiasm.
She has loads of energy and her passion for what she does is evident. Emanuela teaching skills are second to none, and my only regret is that I had not met her to before 2 years ago as I’m now going away to University to study ‘Vocal Studies’ and therefore unable to continue my lessons with her. I feel that I have learned so much more from Emanuela over the last 2 years, much more than with previous singing teachers. As I prepare to go away to Uni, I feel confident that Emanuela has taught me the skills and foundation required as I start this new exiting chapter in my life".

TESTIMONIAL of the 3/10/2012
(prepared to the admission to the Music Conservatoire of Novara, Italy, passing the exam with 8/10)
"Thank you very much for the support and the help you gave me for the examination; if it was not for you, I do not know if I could have done it. Someone can be able to sing, but if he doesn't have a good teacher by his side his own ability is not enough, and maybe he just doesn't go anywhere. Thanks for helping me so much with the lessons, and for your valuable advices that I always tried to put into practice. I love your way of teaching and your way of dealing with students. I am really lucky to be in your hands and I feel so well, that I hope one day I'll be able to repay you, being so much what you have done for me"
