Michelle Kei I., a soprano of Japanese and American heritage, "uses her strong dramatic soprano to slice through the orchestra" in a varied repertoire that encompasses Verismo to Broadway. Possessing a captivating stage presence and praised as "superb," "gifted," and a "constant breakaway from the rest of the vocal pack," she has entertained audiences on stages around the world. Those are the first two sentences of my professional biography. I thought I'd use them to get the ball rolling.
Ever since I can remember, I've always been a performer. I come from a very musical family. I was always singing! I sang at home, in church, in show-choir a

Sheer technique is necessary but insufficient to play an instrument well. Aural skills, that include the study of functional tonality and voice-leading are important factors that impart musicality. This is of great import if the prospective musician wants the audience to truly enjoy his or her performance!

During the past 28 years, I have been fortunate to acquire a solid background in vocal technique thanks to the many teachers I have worked with and my own passion to continuously learn more about this art.
Many come to me without having been shown how to use their bodies as 'support' for their sound. Without learning this step, singing becomes hopelessly frustrating. Most teachers are unaware of how to coordinate the various parts of the vocal instrument to obtain freedom in singing. Once my students feel this coordination, progress begins rapidly. I am successful in my teaching because I get resuts.

What I love about teaching voice lessons is having a front-row seat when students have their "aha" moments: When they learn something about themselves, their technique, their voices, or maybe all of the above, and make better music than they've ever made before. Working one-on-one with aspiring singers, I can really tailor what I teach to the specific needs and goals of each student, which helps progress occur more quickly.
I have taught general music, theory, chorus, and private lessons to preschool through college-age students over the last 13 years. A third generation music teacher, I grew up “playing school” and k

[CHICAGO, IL] As a young professional in the music business, I prefer to approach teaching through performance learning with applied lessons. I am 26 years old, and I have been singing for as long as I can remember. I studied as a double major in Commercial Music and Music Business at Millikin University (Class of 2017).

My passion for music and performing sparked from childhood, collaborating with my musical family. Much of our time together was spent singing next to Grandma at the piano, picking up an instrument, and learning how it all works. I believe each student learns in a different, unique way, and am committed to discovering what practices and techniques work best for the individual. My goal at each lesson is have a collaborative experience with a positive and productive atmosphere.
A professional performer in the city of Chicago for over a decade, I began teaching 4 years ago after a collegue asked me to take a few of her students. From that e
