Christine Beasley Singing Teacher

Christine was my teacher for 2 years before I was accepted into the Sydney Conservatorium of Music. There was never a song I couldn't sing to a high standard due to the strong, foundational techniques she taught me in breath control/support, presentation and melodic phrasing.A teacher who leads by example, Christine taught me invaluable skills on how to approach the art of song with respect and musicality through extensive contextual research and meticulous analysis of each bar - notes, lyrics and all!Christine never failed to help me to achieve my goals. During my time with her, I played the lead role of Kim in Miss Saigon, Belle from Beauty and the Beast, received a High Distinction in my AMEB exam, an OnShow nomination for Best Vocal Performance and straight Outstandings (A+) in all my Music II Performances. Most importantly, she helped me prepare my recordings for universities abroad to showcase my talents, and under her guidance, I was accepted into Cornell University, College of Arts and Science where I plan to pursue a major in Music.Christine teaches from her abundunt love for singing. Under her guidance, I grew to immeasurable extents and will continue to grow, both as a singer and individual.Thank you, Mrs Beasley.

Christine is an incredibly passionate, generous and talented singing teacher. I have had the pleasure of working with and learning from her for the past 4 years, during which time she has encouraged and challenged me through building towards a wide repertoire and finding many performance opportunities, such as her annual concerts and the Sydney Eisteddfod. I always feel welcomed by Christine, and am so grateful for the effect that her teaching has had not just on my singing, but on my confidence and skill as a performer. I feel privileged to have found such a kind and dedicated teacher and friend in Christine.

I have known Chriatine Beasley as a singer and teacher for almost 30 years. There are few more dedicated professionals capable of guiding young voices, and Christine is qualified by knowledge, experience and enthusiasm.As a trained Early Childhood teacher and an internationally experienced opera singer, she knows what it takes to elicit the best from a student, from beginner to professional level.We have adjudicated major singing competitions together, and her concern for the vocal and emotional security of the young participants has always impressed me.I recommend Christine Beasley as a teacher of singing, at all levels. Nobody is more dedicated to the task of teaching!Professor ALAN RICHARD HENDRIE,Chair of Vocal Department, Conservatorio Maestro Paulino, Ponta Grossa, Brasil.

As a beginning singer, I was searching for someone who could teach me the skills necessary to discover my singing voice to its fullest extent. Christine is an experienced and passionate teacher who has a natural gift for teaching, and is able to draw from her students focus, determination, musical understanding and improvement in the voice every lesson. Each week, I am excited about music and my progress, and look forward to the challenges she gives me. Christine is a great inspiration and role model for any singer starting out their career!

I came to Christine after a particularly negative experience at university had all but convinced me to give up singing -- how thankful I am to have found her! Christine's dedication and passion for her craft has helped me rediscover my love of singing and now I can't wait to see what the future holds for my talent. With a long and successful career in music that is nothing short of inspiring, coupled with her experience as a teacher, Christine is simply a wonderful coach and I always look forward to our training sessions every week.

Christine is a beautiful, lively teacher with a contagious passion for music. During my time with Christine I have been able to develop a technique that enables me to sing any song, from any genre with confidence.She is a great mentor and she has always provided me with great advice and guidance regarding my music career. She tailors the lessons to your vocal ability and what you're trying to achieve, and nothing is impossible!It is a pleasure to work with Christine, and I look forward to our end of year concert!

Christine was an absolutely wonderful find! My young daughter (12 years of age) has been a performer since she was little and has naturally found her way in the musical theatre world. However, when offered an audition in a major musical alongside renowned Australian performers last year I realised she needed professional support and tuition if she was to truly follow her passion. Christine embraced my daughter and kindly and compassionately worked her through her first major audition process, not only guiding and tutoring her musically, but also providing professional support in other stage nuances such as stage positioning, use of the microphone, breathing, visual and connective techniques to feel confident and comfortable in front of adjudicators while still embracing and enjoying her own unique personality and style. My daughter was successful in her audition in what was an extremely competitive process.My daughter has many other interests besides singing and performing, and as such we do not have any daily regime with practice nor do we value competitiveness. However, since my daughter has been tutored by Christine she has developed and maintained her own standards of practice and commitment and has flourished in her love for musical theatre and singing in a natural, happy and non-competitive way. She was selected this year for the school vocal enrichment group as their primary soloist and will be singing at Town Hall as representative soloist for her school along with other selective vocal performances she has enjoyed this year.Christine has always been understanding, firm though compassionate, and so inspirational, which has significantly developed my daughter in her confidence and singing ability within the last year. My daughter loves attending her lessons with Christine and finds herself surprised when she realises how her vocal ability has developed so much, and so quickly, and how enthusiastic she is about varying vocal styles and really strengthening her voice. I see how Christine's passion for singing has overflowed into her teaching of my daughter and I am very grateful for her shared expertise and commitment to my daughter's vocal development.
