“I AM SO PROUD TO TEACH MY VOCAL JAZZ CONCEPT AT THE VENICE VOICE ACADEMY OF GIOVANNA GATTUSO AND I AM HONORED TO HAVE HER AS PERSONAL VOCAL TRAINER.  HER METHOD IS A “MUST” FOR THE EDUCATION OF EVERY SINGER.”

"... I was finally able to give a face to a name that has had a place in international vocality and teaching for years. I do not hide the pleasant surprise of having discovered that Gattuso, already known as the author of the" Crossover "method that I have repeatedly recommended to my students as a text for the study of vocal technique, she was not an elderly lady of a certain age with home and shop in Los Angeles, but also a beautiful woman! Giovanna's contagious enthusiasm after my visionary lesson of about 3 hours, and his sincere appreciation for my work as a musician, instantly confirmed that his love of music and his intense passion for studying and teaching were the secret of his fame, for those who have made the "Voice" its work tool. Its Venice Voice Academy, in the two branches of Turin in Italy and Venice Beach-Los Angeles in California, with the collaboration of some of the most highly-rated professionals In the international context, it is today a fundamental destination for the training of all young singers, but also for vocal professionals who want to deepen their knowledge on the subject. The attention to detail, attention, professionalism and informal hospitality that students receive from Giovanna Gattuso and her staff of teachers is certainly something unique, an added value. Today, I am proud that my "Vocal Jazz Concept" is a subject of study of the Venice Voice Academy, as I am honored, by unrepentant Jazz Vocalist, to have Giovanna Gattuso as Director, and often (via skype), before and after the concerts , as a "Personal Vocal Trainer.

I met Giovanna during her classical training and I was amazed at her ability to pick up the different styles and techniques, an ability that gives her the chance to associate with different musical and artistic genres. Surely her artistry is a positive influence on both her students and fellow musicians, who can benefit from working with such a dynamic and versatile performer.

“.. It was magnificent, the level of artistry she displayed, and this concert was one of the best concerts I’ve attended. had the opportunity to meet Giovanna in person and discovered that her personality and character also reflected her art.  Knowing her personally led me to learn about Giovanna’s high level of knowlege as a music educator, whose extensive experience and unique teaching techniques achieve fast and effective results with all of her students. Giovanna’s recent Grammy nomination for her CD entitled “Jungle E Maree” speaks for itself ..”

After extensive search for a new vocal coach, I came across Giovanna in December of 2009. Having had previous experience working with different singers and vocal coaches, I knew from the very first session that I had come across a gem. She is an amazing singer, her voice reminds me of a finely tuned musical instrument. She puts her heart and soul in her profession. Along other great attributes, her sincerity and work ethics keeps bringing me back to her.

I met Giovanna at her beautiful campus she organizes every year in Los Angeles. I will always remember  those two months spent with her were I confronted my professional experiences with such a talented artist.   Every day I work on some of her "Crossover Singing Method" exercises.  A method that I recommend to anyone wishing to undertake the study of singing for the first time, because it explains in a complete and understandable way the correct use of the voice, a delicate instrument to love and respect ... and to those who, like me, love to be always trained to singing.

TERESA GIACCONE

Aware of the power and importance of the Voice in the Leadership Development processes and the development of potential and profound resources, the connection with Giovanna was unexpectedly created between a departure for Los Angeles and the return to Turin. Our immediate and mutual understanding conversations took shape from the first contact and continue over time as a "Mantra" .. words flow and the Song becomes a hypnotic space thanks to Giovanna's masterful, attentive, scrupulous and stimulating accompaniment. In these years I have developed a harmonious sensitivity and I felt encouraged, supported with delicacy and never judged. "
