Train with a working professional.
Ian Sabourin is an internationally active countertenor who has performed with the Canadian Opera Company, OperaOttawa, the Cini Foundation in Italy, and leading ensembles across Canada including Caelis Academy Ensemble, Toronto Consort, and Ensemble Art Choral.

Ian's approach blends classical technique with modern voice science — grounded in what actually works for real singers in real rooms.
