TEACHER OF VOICE
“Georgia is a remarkably insightful vocal coach and technician, drawing from her 20+ years of experience as a performer and songstress. They say: those who can, do; those who can’t, teach. Georgia’s the exceptional exception.”

Heaven Bent Gospel Choir
I am pleased to have been appointed, in April 2018, Musical Director for Heaven Bent Gospel Choir, a semi-professional group that is Auckland’s oldest gospel choir. A wonderful group of singers (and people!) the choir has a fantastic repertoire, which I am thoroughly enjoying learning and shaping. It is a joy to be working deeply in the gospel tradition and this incredible heart centered music whilst empowering others to sing from a place of love and celebration
See Heaven Bent page for more information.
We are often on the look out for new members to audition. Contact me for more details.
