Thanks to a unique experience of post-traumatic self-education following a serious car accident, and having taken up the works of the great singing teachers of past centuries and their pupils describing their methods and empirical experience, the lyric singer Mariam Sarkissian has created a synthetic method of teaching vocal technique which has no known equivalent to date in the field of teaching singing and spoken and sung vocal technique: the Sarkissian Method®.
Based on Sarkissian's original concept called the Balance Triangle (Le Triangle de l'Équilibre®), inspired by the teaching of the Belcanto tradition schools (Lamperti, Everardi, Garcia), the method is intended to form or re-educate the expression tool of different singers and speakers, both amateurs and professionals.
Mariam Sarkissian's book I Think, Therefore I Sing or The Praise of Cognitive Belcanto, including a description of her teaching method and her work with opera singers (soloists and choristers, amateurs and professionals, beginners and advanced, in career and in rehabilitation) was published in 2018 and is currently available on our website in French and in English.
