Graduated from Paris Conservatory and in Germany with over 30 years of experience, I teach singing in individual lessons for all levels.

Ich habe Katja in Jena / Deutschland auf der Suche nach einer Gesanglehrerin kennengelernt.
Mit ihrer sympathische und fröhliche Art hat sie mir sofort die Aufregung genommen und den Mut geschenkt, zu singen. Unter ihrer kompetenten Anleitung konnte ich schon nach kurzer Zeit solistisch oder im Trio erfolgreiche Auftritte absolvieren.
Sie hat genau auf mich zu geschnittene Titel aus dem Swingbereich mit mir einstudiert. Mit Hilfe ihres Unterricht habe ich gelernt, meine Stimme unter Berücksichtigung von Haltung und Atmung optimal ein zusetzten.
Ganz lieben Dank dafür!

Looking for a sensitive and highly qualified singing teacher in Jena (Germany) I was very lucky to find Katja in 2014. With teaching experience of a huge repertoire of songs, arias, chansons etc. in nearly all European languages and in so many genres SHE was the ONE, in presence and online.
Even after she moved to Quimper (Brittany) I wouldn’t think of leaving her lessons, since she makes my life so more beautiful. Now from a distance. But close enough to miss her and my singing lesson after a week.

Ich habe zwei Jahre Gesangsunterricht bei Katja genossen. Sie hat mich jede Stunde ein Stück weitergebracht, meine Stimme zu stabilisieren und meine Ausdrucksweise zu verfeinern. Katja hat sich immer mit mir gefreut.
Dankeschön für diese wundervolle Lebenszeit.

Katja did always take her time at the beginning of the lesson and we chatted for at least 5-10min so we catch up, it made me feel like she‘s caring for us and she definitely did for all of her students. She also always had a good advice when I didn‘t get a note. She taught me how to sing very well on my own, as I have only sang in a choir before. She also was always eager to redo lessons we missed, because she was always hard working, loved doing her job and didn‘t want us to feel omitted.

I know Katja from my singing lessons in Jena, Germany. She always welcomed me with a big warm smile and her lessons were fun. After a warm up to get ready for the songs, we worked on app. 2 songs we have chosen together. Katja has a big repertoire of all kind of songs. You can bring your own songs or she helps you to find a new one, which you like.

I really recommend to take singing lessons with Katja, because she has a big heart and a great way to encourage you finding your own voice. You might think you can't sing high notes. Take a lesson with Katja and she will show you what's possible! I was often surprised!

Katja ist eine wirklich herzliche und erfahrene Gesangslehrerin. Sie findet zu jeder Stimme und jedem Anlass wundervolle Stücke, die sie dann gemeinsam mit einem einstudiert :)
Und wenn eine Stelle mal hakt, hat sie verschiedene Ideen und Erklärungen, die einem weiterhelfen!

Bei Frau Duridanov hat der Unterricht immer Spaß gemacht und man hat gleichzeitig viel gelernt. Sie hatte immer neue Ideen für Lieder und es wurde nie langweilig. Ich vermisse sie hier in Deutschland!

Katja is a wonderful and skilled teacher who leads with great empathy and intuition that shows her wide range of experience. I worked with Katja for more than two years and highly recommend taking classes with her no matter if you are beginner or advanced. She will greatly support you at any given level you are at with her extraordinary abilities as a singer, teacher and human being.

Katja had been my singing coach for one and a half years.
Unfortunately, my take away from singing classes back in school was that I cannot sing and throughout my whole life singing was closely connected to shame for me. In 2020 I decided I want to address my issue and untie this knot. Katja provided the safe space that I needed. With patience, humor and passion she guided me on my way to become friends with my voice and eventually I found great joy in singing. I stopped taking classes with her when she moved to France. Thank you so much, Katja, for opening up a whole new world for me!

Katja ist die beste Gesangslehrerin, die man sich wünschen kann. Mit absoluter Professionalität, Einfühlungsvermögen und Geduld findet sie stets die perfekten Übungen und das passende Repertoire für jede Stimme und Persönlichkeit. Ich habe bei ihr unglaublich viel gelernt und die Freude am Gesang wiederentdeckt. Je la recommande vivement mille fois!!!

I took lessons in presence when Katja taught in Germany. Now I continue with online sessions. Every single time is valued “me-time”. Katja is a very empathetic teacher who know very well how to educate her students (even from scratch) in voice and technique. She brings in her ideas on what to practice but is also open minded to sing students favourite songs. That’s good fun.

I had singing classes with her for a few years until she moved to France and I can say, that I always loved singing with her. She teaches you various genres of music and is very flexible. Her classes have helped me to have better control over my breathing and the strength of my voice. And adding to that she's just a super nice person. We used to talk often after our lesson and I always enjoyed it. I can proudly recommend her as a singing teacher!

J'ai pris 10 heures de cours de chant avec Katja, j'ai beaucoup apprécié sa manière d'enseigner. J'ai "appris à respirer", c'était plus physique que je pensais. Maintenant je suis imbattable au karaoké.

Merci Katja !
