Joanne Togati
Opera Singer in North Miami Beach, FL
Why hire Joanne Togati?
I am a classically trained award winning opera singer with a large jazz repetoire which also includes popular crossover favorites. I am currently training with Manny Perez, famed teacher of Eglise Gutierrez of the Metropolitan Opera, and perform in his Concert Series in Miami. I love all kinds of music and do my best to represent each style and genre authentically. I perform many private and public events.
One of a kind performance!
I had the privilege to hear Joanne sing privately - I don't know what she was singing - but tears ran down my face ... her voice has so much emotion and feeling. Thank you Joanne for sharing with me and my family - you are truly special and gifted. Your friend

Above our expectations
My wife and I utilized the services of Joanne for our friend's Memorial Service. She found her through the internet and was most impressed with her resume and the audios found on the site. What we did not realize was the true beauty and richness of her voice in a live setting. After attending an opera recital the night before we had a live comparison and realized what a truly professional singer she is. We plan on using her in the future for a different venue and would definitely recommend her services.
