LAAKSONEN
Singer | Composer | Singing teacher | Vocal coach

Welcome! This website showcases my two primary passions: creating music and teaching.

MUSIC


I'm a composer, songwriter, singer, and pianist. My latest album, Shadows Are Light, was released in autumn 2022. It follows Spaces Between Memories (2016) and my piano album Spaces Around Times (2019). I also create music for films, choirs, and pop artists. Discover more on the Music page.


TEACHING


Alongside music, I’m passionate about teaching. My focus is vocal coaching for all levels, but I also coach songwriters, pianists, and public speakers. I hold a Master of Music from the Sibelius Academy and was one of the first to introduce Complete Vocal Technique (CVT) in Finland. I continuously expand my methods through further education. With a student-centered approach I help individuals discover their unique voice and creative potential as well as achieve a balanced and healthy vocal technique.
