A singer’s education,
given back.

Andreas studied at The Juilliard School on a full scholarship, earning his Bachelor of Music and Master of Music in voice. His student years were spent largely on stage: sixteen Juilliard production and recital programmes carry his name, in repertoire reaching from Cavalli’s La Doriclea to Poulenc’s Dialogues des Carmélites. He performed as a baritone throughout his training at Juilliard and now sings as a tenor.

The Oratorio Society of New York named him a finalist in its Lyndon Woodside Oratorio-Solo Competition, with the final round held at Carnegie Hall’s Weill Recital Hall. He sang Beaumarchais (the role that sets Corigliano’s The Ghosts of Versailles in motion) at the Aspen Opera Theater Center, where Opera Today called him “amazingly adept and versatile”. In his final spring at Juilliard he sang Ramiro in Ravel’s L’Heure espagnole and the Notary in Puccini’s Gianni Schicchi, and was noted in The New York Times, which wrote that he “sang convincingly as Ramiro”.

His summers followed the American training circuit: the Aspen Music Festival, the Bay Area Summer Opera Theater Institute, and the International Vocal Arts Institute, which took him to Caguas, Puerto Rico, where he sang in the IVAI gala with the Puerto Rico Symphony Orchestra, and on to Tel Aviv, where he performed Guglielmo in Mozart’s Così fan tutte. His studies were supported by the George and Marie Vergottis Scholarship; on graduating he received the Novick Career Advancement Grant for outstanding graduates, followed by a career grant from the A. G. Leventis Foundation.

Teaching came alongside performing, not after it. At his studio in Limassol he works privately with singers at every level, from beginners to young artists preparing conservatoire auditions. He taught voice at the state Music Lyceums of Larnaca and Paphos, and teaches classical voice at the University of Nicosia and European University Cyprus.

In 2025 he founded the Vocal Excellence Summer Programme: a summer intensive in Limassol for singers aged 12 to 21, built around the kind of training he once had to leave the country to find. Up to thirty singers work daily with an international faculty: private lessons, audition masterclasses, Alexander Technique, and vocal-health seminars with medical specialists. The programme ends with a filmed performance.

The three strands are one practice. The stage keeps his teaching honest; the studio keeps his singing curious; and Vocal Excellence exists so that the next generation of singers in Cyprus can begin that journey closer to home.
