“Not only is Liane Keegan one of Australia’s greatest operatic artists,
but I believe her to be one of the most gifted singing teachers working today, making her a formidable teacher and mentor.
Liane’s comprehensive understanding of vocal technique along with her deep thoughtfulness and emotional intelligence, helps singers like myself to elevate themselves from students to artists with a profundity and confidence that would have been previously unimaginable.
Liane makes the technique of Bel Canto singing precise, economic and easy to comprehend, whilst she hugely enriches the musical expressivity and artistry of the singing student. Working with Liane has been a joy for me personally and prospective students would be lucky to do the same”.
Caitlin Cassidy, Mezzo Soprano
“Liane Keegan has been a founding presence throughout my vocal development, beginning in my earliest years of training and continuing through ongoing coaching as my career has grown.
The technical tools, musical insight and healthy vocal approach she instilled in me, remain central to my work as a professional singer, performing both in Australia and internationally.
Her advice and guidance, continues to reinforce the foundation of my professional journey and I am deeply grateful for her enduring influence on my development as an artist”.
Asher Reichman, Tenor
“I worked with Liane during Opera Australia’s Ring Cycle in 2023.
She helped me enormously with my German diction and interpretation of the role I was working on. She has immense knowledge and understanding of both the language and the style of the music. She guided me through the text with care and precision with attention to the musical nuances of Wagner.
It was such a joy working with her, helped by her humour and kindness, we achieved so much in a relatively short space of time. She is a wonderful colleague, and we have since become firm friends.
An invaluable asset to the operatic world here in Australia.
I cannot recommend her highly enough”.
Sarah Sweeting, Mezzo Soprano
“I have had the pleasure of working with Liane in different capacities and have witnessed firsthand Liane in the roles of soloist, coach, teacher and opera director. Her vast lived experience covers a wealth of musical styles and genres, gathered from performing in some of the world's finest establishments, appearing with legendary artists in our industry.
Liane is one of the most renowned dramatic contraltos in Australia today.
As a teacher and coach, she has the ability and insight to give students carefully considered guidance, whilst also ensuring that each student find their own unique voice.
I have seen her share her experience and teachings with everyone from community choir members to seasoned professionals, treating all with the highest artistic respect and helping them excel at all stages of their artistic development. I could not recommend Liane's professional services more highly to anyone seeking to develop their singing and performance artistry.
Patrick Burns, Conductor
“Masterclass is the all-encompassing term that best describes Liane and her methods of teaching.
I knew I was in safe hands 10 years ago when I started working with Liane as her instinct for embodying the text and music is second to none, which makes lessons so rewarding. Liane has enabled me to appreciate the individuality of my own voice without manufacturing my sound and has given me a solid foundation for singing. Liane is an absolute role model when it comes to the ins and outs of being a stalwart performer, whether it be understanding the expectations of the art form, what the industry requires,
or the presentation and authenticity of whatever work you are learning or preparing.
As a Voice Talent I have found Liane’s approach to analysing text easily transferable into my work.
Every day, I am reminded of her principles of healthy vocal technique and apply them to my professional acting and voiceover work. When you are working with Liane, she is not just an outstanding vocal technician but also a connoisseur language coach, mentor and importantly a stellar performer.
I cannot recommend Liane highly enough for anyone who is serious about enhancing their singer’s ‘toolkit’ and craftsmanship “.
Maurice Wan, Voice Talent, Actor, Singer
