Olivia Wallace - BIO

Olivia is an emerging young professional coloratura soprano, aspiring to hold a career deeply steeped in the performing arts in addition to her passion for teaching. Growing up in the suburbs of Detroit, Michigan she was thankful to have a diverse culture around her at a young age and have wonderful drama/fine arts opportunities both in school and locally. She is the only musical soul in her immediate family, so she taught herself how to play guitar in middle school in order to lead her youth worship band when the leader stepped down. From then on her life was consistently consumed with music; from solo and ensemble, musicals, majoring in music in undergrad and graduate studies, to her professional operatic debut in 2019 at Hartford Opera Theater and her international performance debut as a young artist at the International Summer Opera Festival of Morelia, also in 2019.

My Approach to Teaching

Olivia enjoys teaching and watching her students grow and improve their singing skills as well as their knowledge of the art. She believes it is important to encourage young musicians while equipping them with healthy fundamentals such as proper breathing technique and thoughtful practice habits, that will serve them later in their musical passions/careers. She especially enjoys teaching students preparing for college auditions and preparing for performance roles, concerts, and solos. She also gladly teaches fundamentals with any aspiring young singer.
