Biography

British-Australian Soprano, Krystl Ride, began singing lessons at the age of 20 with her Grandmother Patricia Hemingway. After a year of lessons, and despite having never learned any other instrument, Krystl was granted a place at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts (WAAPA) where she completed her Bachelor of Music (Classical Voice) with singing teachers Linda Barcan, Harry Coghill and Patricia Price. She continued her studies at the Royal Academy of Music (RAM) under the tutelage of Julie Kennard and Iain Ledingham where she received a Master of Arts in Singing with a Distinction. During her studies she was awarded scholarships from the Sylvia Simpson Fellowship, Tait Memorial Trust, Mario Lanza Educational Foundation, Josephine Baker Trust, Opera and Arts Support Group (Australia), Opus 50 Charitable Trust, and The Australian Government through the Australia Council for the Arts, its arts funding and advisory body; as well as generous donations through the Australian Business Arts Foundation.

Testimonials

“We were so happy we found Krystl to sing at our ceremony. She was professional, enthusiastic, friendly, flexible, well presented and sang so beautifully. Many of our guests commented on how lovely it was to have such a skilled vocalist performing on our special day.”

Sarah Tidey

 

“Krystl performed regularly at The Wild Fig Café and created a gorgeous sound track and a passionate, dramatic ambience for our popular ‘opera and pasta’ night. Customers revelled in her voice and came back weekly to dine, wine and to soak up the Krystl’s rich vocals.
Krystl also managed our ‘opera and pasta’ night performers including arranging different singers and pianists, seeking feedback from customers and liaising with myself. Krystl was reliable, professional and a joy to work with.
Krystl added so much value to The Wild Fig Café’s ‘opera and pasta night’. It would not have been such a huge success without her.”

Qualifications and Experience

 

* Master of Arts in Singing (Distinction) - Royal Academy of Music (UK) * Bachelor of Music (Classical Voice) - Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts (Australia) * DBS (issued 18th January 2022)

 

Krystl teaches singing to all ages and tailors the lesson to suit the individual student - whether singing is to build confidence, just for fun, or for graded exams. Krystl enjoys helping others achieve their potential.

 

Krystl teaches at her home in Bath and is also happy to travel within a reasonable distance to teach at the student's home.

 

'Krystl has such a gift for making people feel at ease during her lessons - she is really knowledgeable about singing and I liked the fact that she went at my pace and was able to tailor her lessons to suit me perfectly. Singing lessons can often feel quite 'awkward', but with Krystl they felt natural and enjoyable as she has a brilliant way with people and is a natural teacher. I would recommend Krystl's lessons to anyone with an interest in singing!' -- Nancy

 

'When I went to my first singing lesson, I was incredibly nervous but with her calm demeanor and endless motivation Krystl put me to ease straight away. Being a primary teacher, singing is compulsory and because of Krystl I can actually sing with confidence and enjoyment. I always thought that at my age there was no point in trying to learn but Krystl had so many strategies to help and support me. Whenever I felt I would not be able to manage a certain task she would find another way for me to perform it. I always left the lesson feeling elevated.' -- Joy Madden

 

'Because of lessons with Krystl I feel more confident.' -- Bee
