About Lars F.
Lars holds an MMus (Distinction) in Vocal Performance from Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, where he studied under Sophie Grimmer and Rob Bottriell. Through the developing of his private practice, he’s becoming increasingly interested and deeply passionate about teaching singing and singing pedagogy. For Lars, music – and especially singing – is all about communication, between performer and audience, between composer and performer/audience, between teacher and student; it is about conveying a story and human emotions that people can relate to and that give us a sense of connection and belonging.
This requires not only a deep understanding of technical skills, but also a sensitivity to the text and the way it is set into music, both melodically and harmonically.
