Poet/Librettist: Commission a poem, song text, or libretto from me
Commission a poem, libretto/song lyrics, or something else from writer Kayla Collingwood.
Welcome!
My name is Kayla, and I am a classical singer, writer/creator, and educator.
Currently based: Paris, France.
From: Aotearoa/New Zealand.
I am on a mission to share the incredible history, works, and people of classical music with new (and existing!) audiences. I believe that classical music should be both accessible and approachable to anyone who wants to engage!
"...Collingwood comes closest to nailing the Broadway pizzazz in her big aria, cataloguing the horrors of Z-grade movies with flurries of coloratura and spurts of rumba frenzy."
