GERMAN DICTION MASTERPROGRAM FOR SINGERS

Elevate our performance with clarity & confidence!

Struggling with German diction in opera arias and art songs? You’re not alone!

Singing in German can feel like a challenge, even for experienced opera singers. The unique sounds, crisp articulation, and delicate balancebetween clarity and vocal technique make it a demanding language to master.

But what if you had a step-by-step guide tailored specifically for singers?

As a native German speaker born and raised in Austria, I have absorbed the nuances of German diction both musically and linguistically from the very start—literally with my mother’s milk! But beyond that, I bring years of experience as a trained opera singer, voice therapist, and speech pathologist with a deep passion for phonetics and linguistic precision.

This online course is designed to help you master the essentials of German diction in a way that feels natural, efficient, and singer-friendly.

What You’ll Learn in This Course:

✅ Body Positioning for Free Articulation – Align your posture for effortless pronunciation.
✅ Exercises for Flexible Tongue & Jaw Movement – Achieve fluid articulation without tension.
✅ Mastering the Soft “ch” Sound – One of the trickiest aspects of German pronunciation!
✅ Developing Sensitivity for Light Articulation – Learn to sing with clarity without overworking your muscles.
✅ Crisp & Clear Pronunciation Without Lip Tension – Improve your diction without compromising vocal resonance.

Having worked with international singers at AIMS (American Institute of Musical Studies) and in my vocal studio in Graz, I understand the unique challenges non-native speakers face. This course bridges the gap between clear diction and healthy vocal technique, ensuring your pronunciation enhances—not hinders your sound.

Yes, the program truly delivers – just ask Alexis Langlois, who experienced the transformation firsthand.

"Working with Robert Sawilla is truly a special experience. He goes beyond teaching German diction- he ensures that his students have an in-depth understanding of the language, the nuances, and cultural context. His thoughtful approach takes his lessons a step beyond, and I highly recommend getting to work with him."

The Result?

🎵 A clear, resonant, and effortless German diction that supports your vocal technique.
🎵 Confidence in singing German repertoire without second-guessing pronunciation.
🎵 A natural, expressive way of delivering the text — so the meaning shines through!

And Ethan McGrath affirms in his feedback that the program is highly suitable even for advanced singers—highlighting its depth, nuance, and pedagogical clarity:

"Robert's teaching completely dispels the myth that German is a harsh language, showing how even the many consonant sounds can help rather than hinder a sense of lyricism and legato line in singing."

This structured, easy-to-follow course is designed with busy singers in mind—so you can start seeing (and hearing!) results right away.

This course consists of 15 lessons, presented in content and exercise videos and tow privat sessions!

The exercises cover everything from achieving optimal posture for singers to developing flexible tongue movement for effortless German pronunciation, as well as refining articulation of the /ch/ sound and distinguishing stressed and unstressed syllables in natural German speech flow.

You'll receive the videos weekly over the course of three months, keeping you motivated and progressing steadily through the program.

A key element of this course is two private 90-minute sessions, where we work intensively on your repertoire.

These sessions help identify obstacles, provide targeted exercises, and integrate improvements directly into your aria or song—ensuring continuous quality control.

We can schedule these two sessions even before your course begins. Just send me a few lines with your preferred time slots. Based on experience, the first session should ideally take place in the 4th week after the course starts, and the second session at the end of the course.
