Edoardo Materassi - Singing Workshops Australia

It is our honour to present the maestro Edoardo Materassi in Australia. 

Edoardo has won the hearts of many of our Italian singing holiday group participants over the years and we are thrilled to invite him to Australia so you too can experience the maestro!

" His vocal warm-up techniques and his passion for choral singing is truly infectious. After just a few short days, he had us singing Italian, African and Macedonian songs, all taught with encouragement and ease. FUN!  Can’t wait to sing with him again!". - Jules Damian 

Read more about Edoardo below. And hurry up and book one or ALL of his workshop events listed below!
