Passion for Singing!
Welcome to my profile! My name is Olga Grammatikopoulou and I'm a classical singer (soprano) and qualified and experienced vocal coach and singing instructor ;in Utrecht. I love both performing as a singer and addressing voice lessons!
Explore Greek Musical Styles
I am passionate about sharing the rich traditions of Greek music, including traditional folk music, Rebetiko, Greek pop and Entechno. While these styles use different techniques than classical singing, my experience performing in various Greek music bands, combined with my voice training, enables me to help you develop the skills necessary to sing effectively in these genres.
Your favourite Songs
Whether you're already familiar with these genres or eager to explore them for the first time, singing the music you love most is best motivation and fun! I encourage you to bring your repertoire suggestions to our lessons.
All Ages and Levels
Whether you're looking to deepen your understanding of Greek music or are just starting your singing journey, we can make this experience exciting together.
