BIO

After over 25 years singing opera professionally all over the world, Susan Foster is committed to sharing her knowledge and experience with students working towards a career in music. She strongly believes that a foundation in classical singing technique, including correct posture, breathing, phonation, and resonance and articulation, helps to build lifelong healthy habits, communication skills, and self-confidence, which can serve to enhance a student's future success in any field.

In addition to holding masterclasses and teaching young artists worldwide, Foster currently maintains a private voice studio in Howland, Ohio.
