About

Kayla Collingwood is a contralto classical singer, music/voice/stagecraft educator, and creator from New Zealand, currently residing in France. She is passionate about bringing engaging classical music experiences to new (and returning!) audiences, and believes in the transformative impact of her chosen art forms. Her singing experiences are solid and varied, having sung in diverse professional contexts in New Zealand, France, and beyond. Following a post-Master of Music hiatus, she committed herself entirely to her multifaceted creative career in 2020. Taking an unconventional path has afforded her the opportunity to focus on technical vocal development - including transitioning from a mezzo-soprano to a contralto - and to cultivate a unique sense of interpretation, musicianship, and artistry.

Music

My repertoire mostly comes from the classical tradition - art song, opera, oratorio, etc! As there are not many standard roles for the contralto voice in opera, most of what I sing is art song, including works by living composers.
