SUMMARY:Drum and Song-Gabriele Tranchina

With a strong background in Jazz\, she moves between Jazz\, Latin and World\, making her a perfect crossover artist. In her work as an educator\, Gabriele is certified Level III in Somatic Voicework™\, offering voice lessons to all ages with a mind/body approach.
