Welcome to our new corporate supporter! Singing resource provider Melofonetica, explains what they do.
Melofonetica provides training and resources to help singers achieve clear, correct and expressive sung Italian (and Latin) in opera and classical music. We also provide coaching and consultancy to help other music professionals – including vocal coaches, accompanists and conductors – develop skills, confidence and expertise in Italian repertoire.
We run a range of coaching masterclasses, workshops and choral days in the UK, plus an exciting summer school and festival in Italy for singers of all levels, accompanists and instrumentalists: Veneto Opera Summer School and Arte Lirica Festival.
Melofonetica was established by tenor, musicologist and leading Italian Coach Dr. Matteo Dalle Fratte in 2014. Following a research fellowship in Italian phonetics for opera at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in 2013, Matteo created the groundbreaking Melofonetica Method®. The method is fast gaining recognition and excellent reviews for its clear and practical approach to helping singers achieve better diction and expression in sung Italian.
