Cristina Russo

Bachelor of Music (Honours) in Performance at The University of Melbourne, Master of Music (Opera Performance) at The University of Melbourne.

I am a freelance professional opera singer, composer and sessional musician. I am passionate about teaching music. I believe that music is for everyone, you are never too old or too “unskilled” to learn music.

I have been teaching privately at my studio in Glen Iris for over ten years. I teach singing in a range of styles from classical, jazz, musical theatre, folk and pop.I am currently working as a singing teacher at Ivanhoe Grammar School. I have extensive experience preparing students for AMEB and VCE exams. I also teach music theory, musicianship, aural skills, sight reading skills and beginners’ piano.

I have worked with Opera Australia, Victorian Opera and State Opera of South Australia. I have contributed vocals to the hit German Netflix soundtrack, Babylon Berlin. Please visit my website for more information regarding my singing career.

My availability is flexible and I am happy to cater to your needs.

I am to deliver engaging lessons that are designed to suit your individual needs. During our first lesson I will evaluate your voice and design a unique programme specific to your voice’s needs so that we can work towards getting you to sound as beautiful as you imagine.
