Mostly Classical Performing Arts Studio

Hello! We are Caterina and William and we run a vocal mentorship studio under Mostly Classical Performing Arts LLC. I’ve seen it too many times: singers who love the music, but get trapped by breath that quits on them—phrases that break, notes that tighten, confidence that fades. My wife and I teach together—not because we like crowds, but because two sets of ears catch what one misses. We both come from bel canto, and we both know: if the diaphragm isn’t steady, nothing else works. 🔥 WE HELP CLASSICAL SINGERS GET JOBS. 🔥 We coach opera and classical singers who are serious about results: freer, more reliable technique, a clearly defined audition package, and preparation that books. I’m an Italian native with 20 years performing in NYC, bringing stylistic authority (diction, phrasing, style) plus a modern understanding of what today’s industry demands — including Broadway-informed standards when crossover expectations apply. William adds the perspective of an experienced performing baritone and mentor, helping singers build consistency, musical leadership, and professional-level preparation. We also specialize in language + style coaching across repertoire: Italian, German, and French opera, plus Spanish zarzuela — with detailed work on diction, text clarity, and idiomatic phrasing. Together, we will: ➡️ Build technique that holds up under pressure (breath, resonance, registration, agility, stamina) 🎼 Identify and refine your 2–3 best audition arias — so you audition with clarity and confidence 🎭 Prepare roles and auditions (Zoom) with specificity: cuts, pacing, intention, presence 🎧 Get recordings audition-ready: clean musical execution + compelling dramatic truth 🎯 Target the right opportunities: YAPs, summer programs, masterclasses, intensives, agencies, and next steps Every session is highly individualized — tailored to your voice, your repertoire, and your timeline — so you leave with a clear plan and actionable notes. Let’s get you winning. 🥇
