About Billy DiCrosta

International Vocal Artist and Coach Billy DiCrosta has been performing professionally for over 30 years. Billy started performing at the early age of 7 and fell in love with being on stage and touching people's hearts through music. He majored in Vocal Performance and Acting at Western CT State University until transferring to The Hartt School of Music to study Musical Theatre.
He has had the joy of playing such roles as Tony in West Side Story , Mike in A Chorus Line , The Baker in Into The Woods and many more. He also had the great honor of singing at The White House for the Clinton Family in 1997. While on tour From 2006 to 2012 Billy started to coach his cast members and develop his passion for helping others find vocal freedom. During this time he started to lay the foundations of the method he teaches today.
In 2013 he opened the doors to Billy DiCrosta Vocal Studio and became the only Accredited Teacher by International Voice Teachers of Mix www.ivtom.org in Connecticut. He is also the North Eastern Area Administrator for IVTOM and helps to educate new teachers on Mix Technique. He is a proud member of National Association of Teachers of Singing, Inc. Billy has spent countless hours of taking what he has learned from his past teachers, IVTOM, and Leading Voice Scientists around the world to develop his unique method. Billy is one of the most sought after Vocal Coaches in the North East. Students travel from all over to study his technique and to find the vocal freedom that can only be found in his studio. Those who can't travel enjoy lessons via Zoom/Skype/Facetime. His students range from beginners to professionals and children to adults. Students have found that in just one lesson, they have  learned more and found more freedom in their voice then they have after studying with their former teachers  for years. Even those students who never thought they could sing learn that with Billy if you can speak you CAN sing !
Billy is known for his unique teaching approach  and the ability to hear exactly what is going on in students voice that is causing the problem and  giving the correct exercise to fix it. Students learn to have fun while training . Thanks to the vocal freedom his students achieve they are able to get leading roles in shows, win competitions, get accepted to top universities and work as professional vocalists. Due to the rapid growth of his studio and his drive for always being the best, Billy founded New Haven Academy of Performing Arts. Refusing to turn away any student who wants to learn his method he needed a way to make sure that could happen.  Billy is proud to have personally trained and certified his staff of vocal coaches in his method so that everyone could learn. Just like Billy his coaches are available in person and online.

When I’m asked about Billy I always pause and so many awesome memories come into my mind.  I didn’t
​think my son, Tyler, who hated all sports, would ever find his passion.  The minute he met Billy and felt Billy’s compassion and enthusiasm he was hooked.  He looks forward to each and every lesson.  

Billy isn’t a push over, he recognizes the seriousness of his work and pushes Tyler to the best he possibly can be.  His professionalism and work ethic are only outdone by his never ending energy.  He has a way of making Tyler want to do better. I know Billy truly cares about Tyler and since working with Ty for the last 6 years he is like family to us now.

Billy has been my daughter's voice coach for almost 5 years. He is so knowledgeable and excited about the physiology of singing that he has brought her voice to a place that I never knew was possible. I can't say enough good things! Billy cares deeply about what he does, and it shines through in every minute of every lesson. He's kind, patient and encouraging, and knows just where to push to help her achieve her goals. Billy has taught my daughter not only confidence on stage, but in life and has become a mentor to her as she is navigating through her teens years. I will be ever grateful for that day that I called to schedule her first lesson with him.
