Teaching for many years now, Izaya Perrier is thrilled to be offering voice lessons to singers from all walks of life. Originally from the Pacific Northwest, Izaya is based in New York City as a working full time singer and actor in the New York Metro area. His classical music accolades include performing many principal roles in the tristate area as well as being a chorister in the New York Philharmonic Chorus and New York City Opera. As a crossover artist he is also in high demand for musical theater productions ranging from golden age to modern pop rock musicals. As an established artist in NYC, he is a regular performer at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center and 54 Below. In covering so many ranges of music in his career he has learned that the best technique to have is one that is healthy, flexible and reliable. Using a mix of Bel Canto classical singing technique and musical theater repertoire he is able to bridge the gap to allow his students to sing in an expressive and powerful way that they desire. In this approach, he has devised a system that builds vocal technique gradually and smoothly in a way that students can easily replicate and practice at home for fast results. With this method he encourages students to bring in music they like and be open to others as we discover the path to singing the way they’ve always dreamed.
