What To Expect

Rehearsals with Alex are positive, high-energy, and sure to make you laugh. Alex has over a decade of experience working with adolescent singers and enjoys helping young tenors and basses sing with their authentic voices in a mature and artistic way. Cooking and travel are just a few of the things Alex is passionate about, and he is more than happy to combine them both with his love for music when on Allegro tour. Last year not only did he join us in Italy, but he also traveled to India in pursuit of new cuisine to explore! In his free time, Alex also enjoys composing and arranging music, riding his bike, and playing board games.
