Musician, Educator, and lover of all things silly and fun! I have been singing since I can remember! I grew up in the DFW area and graduated from Richland HS. I attended Sam Houston State University and graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor’s Degree in Choral Music Education. I’ve been teaching in secondary public schools in the Houston area for over 12 years.
Hi, I’m Bryanna Robilotto.
I’m a lifelong learner with a passion for people. I love music and its unique ability to connect people across all different backgrounds. I have had many music mentors that were living examples of how impactful music can be on the human connection. Because of their influence and impact on my life, I strive to make others feel the way they make me feel: seen, valued, and important.
My Approach
Investing in your students and your program, even for short periods of time, is an honor and privilege. One that I do not take lightly. I have a strong foundation in healthy tone building in young singers, and use the human experience to bring relevant connection to your singers! An experience with me is sure to be filled with energy, excitement, kinesthetic movement, and entertainment. My positivity, goofiness, and genuine approach to the music I hope is just the thing your program is looking for.

Shiny and New! (But not really…)
Chances are as the teacher, you are saying all the right things to your ensemble. Taller vowels, spinning your air, “watch me!” I don’t know many times I’ve said the same thing over and over…. and over again to my choirs. Only to have a clinician come in and say the same thing I had been saying for months, but in a different way, and the student get it finally!
Sometimes, that new approach is what can connect to the students. I tend to involve the entire body into the singing process. Movement has been the best way I’ve connected with my students, and I am not afraid to try silly and new things to get the students to connect to the true meaning of the music.
I definitely am not a wizard, but I pride myself on looking at problems from all angles to find the solution that is best for your ensemble. No one choir will ever be the same, so I recognize that it is about finding the “Cinderella” fit for what will be a long lasting solution.
Collaboration Station!
I recognize that my services are available to you to further your vision! Which is why I think it is so important for me to understand what that vision is for you and your ensembles. Whether it’s building confidence in your young singers, getting performers to think “outside of the box,” or tone building, I feel confident in bringing fresh new ideas to your program that align with the vision you’ve built for them.
Together, we can further the connection that music creates between your singers, the audience, and your goals!
Feedback That You can Trust!
We have all received judges comments that are complimentary, but do not offer our ensembles anything to work on. It’s nice to hear, but if you are looking to further your ensemble’s performance to the next level. That is why I always meet the students where they are, while encouraging them to always take it to the next level.
Whether as a solo contest judge, a clinician during your rehearsal, or as a evaluation adjudicator, I strive to find the balance between uplifting the singers with the wonderful things that are already in place, while bringing attention to things that can always improve. With over 12 years of teaching experience, I feel confident that I am able to be as detailed as necessary, while tailoring my comments to what the students can understand.
