ABOUT
Meet Mark Power
Mark Power has been sharing his talents onstage for the entirety of his life. In fact, he credits his first solo at just three years old when he took the stage at his father’s church and sang, “Onward Christian Soldiers....”
His fascination with and commitment to voice continued through high school. At the end of his junior year, in 1982, he gave voices lessons to a severely pitch challenged sports buddy. Mark quickly found he had a knack for teaching when his friend made it into the school’s elite singing group that Mark himself was apart of.
Soon afterwards, Mark dedicated himself to refining these hybrid talents of both performing and teaching. Many years were dedicated to specializing in and professionally performing Opera in Los Angeles, Seattle and New York. In addition to Opera, he both performed and coached professionals in Pop, Music Theater, Rock, and R&B. He also applied his training to other platforms such as theater direction, television, public speaking, vocal therapy, and radio. Perhaps one of his favorite experiences was producing, directing and writing the book and lyrics for an eco-friendly children’s opera for his daughter’s elementary school called, “The World Below.”
Mark also has a great deal of experience coaching those with physical disabilities that hinder (but do not remove) their ability to sing. In the past 10 years, he is proud to say he has mastered the art of the online lesson, which he has sculpted further to fit needs post Covid-19.
“I never knew I had potential with my voice and Mark taught me how to use it to the best of my ability. I am so grateful for him!”
“Before I studied with Mark I could barely hold a note, but now I can reliably sing up to three octaves. I am now making steady progress in my DREAM to become an opera singer!”
