About Our Lecturer
Taylor Stilson joined the voice faculty of Boston Conservatory at Berklee in 2018 and currently teaches at Brown University and Phillips Andover Academy. Mr. Stilson has crafted a unique career as vocal pedagogue, singer, yogic practitioner, and holistic body-mind modality enthusiast. As vocal pedagogue, Taylor has lectured on vocal
anatomy, physiology, and vocal health at Brown University, The Boston Conservatory Dance Division, and University of Miami Frost School of Music. His past and current students have placed finals in the Metropolitan Opera Council Auditions, Classical Singer Convention, NATS, and have been seen in regional theaters in Miss Saigon, Hair, and Newsies, and regional and international tours. His yogic and body modality exploration has deeply influenced his voice teaching. He utilizes Iyengar and Yin Yoga alignment techniques and myofascial work in his teaching. In addition, he has found hypnosis and limbic-disassociative cognitive exercises to be highly beneficial for students suffering from performance anxiety and anxiety-induced Muscle Tension Dysphonia.
Taylor Stilson recently completed his first year of D.M.A. studies in Vocal Pedagogy and Performance at University of Miami. He received an M.M. in Vocal Pedagogy with Collaborative Piano Studies and a B.M. in Vocal Performance from The Boston Conservatory. He taught for The Boston Conservatory’s Vocal/Choral Intensive from 2007-2011 and The Boston Conservatory's MEIP Voice Program in 2012. Mr. Stilson has completed additional studies in voice, opera, and piano at the Hawaii Performing Arts Festival, Michigan Opera Theatre, New York Opera Studio, Spring Arbor University, and Interlochen Center for the Arts. He has studied voice with Kevin Wilson, Jayne Sleder, Bill Cotten, and Dr. William Christensen, and has coached with Dr. Karl Paulnack, Andrew Altenbach, Michael Strauss, Allison Voth, and Nico Castel.
As singer, Mr. Stilson has been seen as Valentin (Faust), Prince Igor (Prince Igor), Marcello (La Bohème), Falstaff (The Merry Wives of Windsor), and Ariodate (Serse) at The Boston Conservatory.
