SINGING LESSONS
Welcome to Castle Events - Singing Teaching
Why we teach singing
We believe that every voice deserves the freedom to express itself fully—emotionally, musically, and authentically. Singing is more than technique; it’s a pathway to confidence, connection, and personal transformation.
How we help singers grow
With over 30 years of combined experience in professional performance and vocal training, we guide singers through a structured, supportive journey. Grounded in classical voice training and enriched with deep knowledge of vocal anatomy and positioning, our approach empowers students to understand and apply the core elements of singing—securely and expressively—in any genre they choose.
What we offer
Our students, aged 6 to 86, explore genres from Opera to Pop, R&B to Musical Theatre. Whether preparing for drama school & West End auditions, or a first-ever solo performance, our singers build real, lasting vocal skill and artistic confidence. Students have gone on to study at top institutions, perform professionally in the West End, across the UK and beyond, or simply find joy in singing for the first time—with presence, power, and purpose.

What people are saying
Testimonials
Don’t take our word for it - here’s what current and past students say…
“It has been such a positive experience having singing lessons with Matthew. It’s been something I’ve been meaning to do for years and fortunately the internet has made this so easy. I can hop online for a lesson and have the good fortune of having someone as a talented and well trained as Matthew (I looked for a local singing teacher but there was nobody who had his level of experience or training - so quite a privilege). Matthew has a knack for putting into words quite subtle adjustments and recommendations which can be understood by a novice singer (ie myself). He has really improved my voice and crucially, extended my upper vocal range considerably (I didn’t think I could reach notes I now am able to sing). Above all, Matthew is very charming and easy to work with and the weekly lesson is something I look forward to. “

"As someone with no prior singing experience, I was initially hesitant to start lessons. But Matt made the entire experience fun, engaging, and approachable. I've already noticed significant progress and feel much more confident in my singing. I'm very glad I decided to take this step!"
