Dorte Hyldstrup

I´ve been working with my voice as a singer and voice teacher for more than 30 years.

I have extensive experience as a teacher on all levels – from Rhythmic Music Conservatory, the Royal Academy of Music, Department of Musicology (Copenhagen), several music schools as well as many courses associated with music seminars and continuing education.

Since 2000 I have taught at more than 200 courses in the teaching method Estill Voice Training in Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Netherlands, Germany, Austria, France and Belgium.

My experience with Estill Voice Training (EVT) goes back to 1988 when I, as a recent graduate from the Royal Danish Academy of Music, went to New York for training by Jo Estill, founder of the EVT. My meeting with Jo was a defining moment for my conception of the singing voice and all its possibilities.

In 1991, I organized the first course with Jo Estill in Denmark, and enjoyed the great privilege of working as her assistant on many courses for the following 9 years.
