I am a teacher who believes and teaches well rounded music education, solid technique, theory, ear training and sight reading. I want each of my students to find a love and appreciation for all music and to find their own voice. Improve your pitch, tone and expand your vocal range! Train your voice to sing in a free and natural manner smoothly from the bottom of your range to the very top! To sing freely without vocal strain and to improve your endurance, stamina, breath control, resonance, vocal quality and the confidence to perform your very best! Acclaimed for her charisma and exquisite tone, soprano Lambroula Maria Pappas has impressed and delighted audiences around the world. She possesses an extraordinary blend of shimmering voice, powerful stage presence and sparkling lyricism.

Pappas has made several CD recordings and has appeared on many television and radio programs including CBC, Bravo and NPR. She is also the recipient of Canada Council Grants, B.C. Arts Grants and the Jacqueline Desmarais Award for artists. This mother of two young children balances her busy performing career, teaching and adjudicating.
