Harriet Johnson
Voice Specialist & Choral Conductor.
Voice Specialist & Choral Conductor
Born in Staffordshire, Harriet was brought up in a highly musical family thus fuelling her great passion for music. She began singing at an early age and has sung with many choirs over the years. It is through her choral training that she developed as a concert singer, performing in choirs and as a soloist at venues all across her country including The Royal Albert Hall, The Royal Festival Hall, Symphony Hall and National Indoor Arena.
When Harriet began directing she took a special interest in anatomy and physiology of the voice and over the last 15 years has spent considerable time continuing her professional development in this area. In 2018 she returned to university full time to study Speech and Language Therapy to deepen her clinical knowledge of voice and voice disorders. Harriet is interested in the role that music can play in the wider Speech and Language profession and has also completed training with ‘Sing to Beat Parkinson’s’. Harriet is also a Vocal Health First Aider.
Improve Your Singing Technique & Performance
The voice is the most accessible musical instrument and yet perhaps the most personal. It is with the latter in mind that Harriet offers singing lessons to all ages and abilities with a sensitive approach.
Should you be wanting to discover your voice, develop your confidence, extend your range or enhance your repertoire, lessons will be modified to your personal requirements.
During lessons, students will have access to an extensive range of repertoire (including classical, musical theatre and pop) allowing individuals to discover songs that best suit their voice.
Harriet is the artistic director for Stone Choral Society and Cantiamo Chamber Choir, both in Staffordshire. She also conducts the Alma Mater Singers, and is Associate conductor for The University of Sheffield Singers’ Society.
Her role as a choral director has led to her working a number of exciting projects for TV and Radio including the BBC and ITV. On such projects she works as a director, vocal coach and music advisor.
