Russian Music Academy of Barcelona
Classical singing
Classical singing trains the voice as an instrument: breathing, breath support, placement and resonance. It is a technique built over time that enables you to tackle the repertoire of opera, oratorio and lied.
We offer one-to-one lessons for all levels and with a flexible timetable.
Music education options
We offer three pathways of music education for our students:
Official qualifications
We prepare students for entrance examinations to Spain's main music conservatoires, for both intermediate and advanced degree programmes.
Trinity College
As an official Trinity examination centre, we offer our students the opportunity to obtain an internationally recognised certificate that demonstrates their musical level.
Individual plan
We welcome students of all ages and levels. We offer individualised music tuition tailored to each student's personal development.
Teachers
Festivals and concerts
Playing in public is the best learning experience.
For this reason, all our students have the opportunity to participate in festivals and concerts organised each year to showcase what they have learned in the classroom.
Frequently asked questions
We accept singing students from age 5 onwards. At an early age, the work differs from that of an adult: it focuses on ear training, pitch and vocal play, without straining the voice. The children's programme includes music theory, vocal technique, repertoire, vocal ensemble and children's choir.
Yes, with no upper age limit. Before starting, we conduct a personal interview to assess your voice and understand your goals. The adult programme includes vocal technique, repertoire, music theory, sight-singing for singers, sight-reading, musical literature, opera history and vocal ensemble.
There is no need to bring it: the work consists precisely of developing it. Almost everyone has more vocal resources than they realise, and what separates a trained voice from an untrained one is technique, not the starting point.
Classical singing encompasses opera, oratorio, art song and concert song. The repertoire is chosen according to voice type, level and interests. If you are interested in other styles, we also offer contemporary singing.
Vocal technique and repertoire classes are individual. Vocal ensemble, choir and theoretical subjects are taught in groups on a fixed timetable.
Singing lessons are arranged with administration based on teacher availability and your schedule.
Yes. Our teachers prepare students for the entrance exams to conservatoires in Catalonia at all levels.
The official syllabus follows the curriculum of the Department of Education of the Generalitat, with elementary and professional grades, and prepares students for entrance to conservatoires. Trinity College London offers eight levels plus an initial level, with international validity. These are two distinct pathways and students can follow one, the other or both.
We teach music in four languages: Spanish, Catalan, Russian and English. Each student can receive lessons in the language they find most comfortable, depending on teacher availability.
Additional programmes
The Academy is part of a broader cultural centre. We offer language and art courses, as well as a family-oriented programme.
