Welcome to Bellucci Conservatory of Vocal Art

The Online Conservatory and Health School for All Vocalists and Professional Voice Users

Nice To Meet You!

We are a conservatory for all vocal styles, but based on the Italian School of Singing, which offers the most accurate technique for all vocalists and is backed by medical scientists.

Our training is grounded in medical science, voice research, and anatomical accuracy.
From opera to musical theatre, jazz en lyrical pop, we teach singers how to build healthy, powerful voices based on truth, not trends. Our method is quite revolutionary - it is interactive: the exams are testing comprehension by making the student the protagonist.

The Bellucci MethodTM – Foundational Statement

The Bellucci Method is a holistic and academically grounded approach to vocal mastery, blending the timeless wisdom of the Old Italian School with cutting-edge scientific research of today in breath support and vocal health.
Unlike many methods that rely solely on tradition or personal experience, the Bellucci Method was developed through intensive academic study of the medical, physiological, and health sciences behind breathing and singing. This makes it a school for not only classical, but all kinds of vocalists in any modern genre.

A Conservatory For Inspiration, Expression, Technique & Health 

Each of our programs is part of a carefully designed Master Series,
combining timeless technique, artistic excellence, and medically-informed vocal science.

"Irene quickly takes her students to a higher level"

I have been taking lessons from Irene for several years now and have learned a lot during this time.
Every aspect of breath support, sound placement, resonance and overal vocal technique has been explained and practised in her useful lessons.  
Besides the fact that Irene quickly lifts her students up to a higher level, she is also a very sweet and inspiring woman.
She is flexible, her enthusiasm is contagious, and her lessons are so enjoyable. Thank you!

“Enormously impressed by her knowledge”

Today I had my first vocal lesson with Irene de Raadt.
I am enormously impressed by her knowledge and way of teaching.
Time to practice!

Susanne Johnson

Musical vocalist and actress, played in "Wicked", "Hamilton", "Oh, Mary"!" and "Sweeny Todd", amongst others on Broadway.

“Fabulous, very detailed teaching”

When I was in Amsterdam for a few months, I wanted to continue improving my voice. By referral from a friend, who had had singing lessons from Irene for over 3 years and who I have seen to make amazing progress, I started lessons with Irene, and kept going the full summer. I have to say I have never experienced such an amazing teacher. Not only is Miss Irene a gifted accompanyist, she taught me things I never really got down in my years of vocal training in New York. Her teachings are very detailed and her way of working on expressive technique and breath support is fantastic. 
These were the most valuable months I spent in vocal training.

I am very thankful and can highly recommend her!

"An experienced, super skilled vocal teacher"

I have enjoyed taking lessons from Irene for many years. Together we worked a lot on my technique and made beautiful recordings.
In the lesson she gives you great exercises, for example for sound creation and resonance, correct posture and breath support.
Extremely important!  I have improved a lot as a singer as a result.
She coached me through my blockages with a number of songs (that I would never have dared to try), which helped me get much further than I thought.
But perhaps the most important thing is: Irene has given me pleasure and self-confidence in singing again.
And I am very grateful to her for that! 
So if you are looking for an experienced, super skilled and enthusiastic singing teacher, I can highly recommend Irene!

Stefano

Singer songwriter, American idol

"Fantasic workshops"

I took vocal lessons with Irene some years ago, before I went to compete on American Idol.
It was the first time I really worked on breath support and I liked that Irene teaches techniques based on the Italian School.
It made a lot of sense and I was finally able to use my head voice and falsetto in a free way.
Great teacher, great lady.
