In addition to singing, Victoria has worked nationally in the UK as an Italian coach.
Alongside performing, Victoria has a keen interest in Italian language coaching - she is passionate about preserving authentic lyric diction of sung Italian. Her natural curiosity for languages, first hand-experience as a singer and Italian teacher lend themselves skillfully/proficiently to this role as she has both working knowledge of the voice and language structure. (reword!)
Currently she coaches Italian at the Royal Academy of Music and also privately, in person and online. Previous experience in the field includes shadowing/assisting the language coaches at Opera North for their productions of Gianni Schicchi and Aida in 2019. During her time at ON, she lead a Q&A pre-performance talk, discussing the role of the Italian language coach in opera with the University of Leeds Italian language department . Prior to that, she coached the chorus of La Bohème for Leeds Youth Opera and the Hallé Youth Choir for an Italian gala in 2018.
