Frank C.

Frank 's musical journey is as dynamic as the roles he's played on stage. With both a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Vocal Performance from Loyola University, this talented tenor has had the honor of performing with renowned companies such as New Orleans Opera, Nashville Opera, Central City Opera, Portland Opera, Mobile Opera, and Opera Louisiane. His performances have taken him across the country, but just as meaningful to him is the work he's done offstage—sharing his love for music through teaching. With over a decade of teaching experience, Frank finds joy in guiding students of all ages and backgrounds. He recently joined Lauren's Voice Studio in 2024 in both in person and virtual instruction. Through Frank's instruction, his students have secured supporting and principal roles in local theater and acceptance into the New Orleans Center of Creative Arts NOCCA. From 2020 to 2021, he taught voice and beginner piano at the Louisiana Academy of Performing Arts, fostering a welcoming space for young learners and budding musicians alike. His passion for building choirs also led him to serve as Choir Director at St. Francis Xavier School for three years and as the Middle School Choir Director at St. George's Episcopal School for another three years. In his lessons, Frank weaves in Music Theory and Solfège when needed, helping students not just sing the notes but understand the music. His experience also extends to adjudication, having served as a judge for the Wood Vocal Competition in 2020, the Louisiana Kids Competition in 2022 & 2023, and LMEA Solo & Ensemble Festival Judge this year. Whether on stage or in the studio, Frank's goal is simple: to inspire others to find their voice and enjoy the music every step of the way.
