“Giovanna is a multi-talented singer. She has a beautiful operatic voice, and can sing lighter music with equal aplomb. It is rare to find an opera singer who has a feeling for jazz: Giovanna is one of those singers.” SETH RIGGS GIOVANNA GATTUSO, SOPRANO, JAZZ SINGER, VOCAL COACH AND CHOIR CONDUCTOR
Giovanna is a musician & vocalist with a very sophisticated and refined style and taste. This is due to her extended experience both in Europe and in the United States of America; experience that gives her a chance to experiment in a very natural way from the opera and the European lyrical music to the most emotional & difficult jazz compositions.
Giovanna earned her diploma at the Academy of the Arts in Italy; she has perfected her vocal skills, Gospel and Jazz styles, with KEN ANDERSON at U.C.S.D. in San Diego, while she has advanced her vocal technique with Maestro SETH RIGGS and Bel Canto with the Maestra AIDA CLARETTO PRESTIA. She collaborates for recordings and concerts with some of the top Italian and American jazz musicians. Her eclectic variety of styles and her unique capacity to adjust her voice to different formats have given her the possibility to collaborate with musicians and within projects of various genres, from classical to classical crossover to jazz.
Renowned Italian vocal coach, Giovanna has developed a unique voice and singing CROSSOVER technique and the system singing method CROSSOVER VOICE TECHNIQUE / TECNICA VOCALE CROSSOVER; it combines cosmopolitan experience and status (the “Bel Canto” technique within the Italian secular tradition, the “speech level”, “gospel”, “jazz”, “soul” and R&B), along with 12 years experience with pupils and singers with jazz, pop, rock and classical background within orchestra & choral direction.
Giovanna holds classes & seminars with her personal vocal system all over Europe & USA (www.giovannagattuso.com school & master class).
