30+ years of professional artistry and musical direction.
What it means to be magnificent. Every singer wants to be considered good and “get there.” But there isn’t a one size fits all.
We help you discover your “there” —and get your singing to come together.
You don’t need to head for global fame or private jets (though don’t let us hold you back —we’ll happily test the champagne). You just need to follow what thrills you — and do it magnificently.
—DAVID BOWIE

Your imagination could take you somewhere magnificent, if you let it.
Sunny Strings & Soul— four-track concept EP mixing 70s soul grooves with classical strings — for lazy Sunday listening. Social Songs— stripped-back Monday night release video series with angular guitar and gritty vocals, filmed in abandoned buildings. Snappy Sassy Swing —playful throwback trio swinging through Motown, Bublé and Beyoncé — perfect for cocktail hour and cheeky winks. Wistful Bohemian Ballads— dreamy folk-infused songbook written under moonlight — one mic, one voice, one story per track. Dirty Vagabond Blues —smoky barroom collection of original songs and Nina Simone covers — piano, stompbox, and a glorious growl. Epic Royal Dub —Think Kate Bush gets lost in a Notting Hill sound system — lush vocal layers over deep, hypnotic basslines. Dreamy Folksy Fables—Whimsical arrangements of classic fairytales and folklore — reimagined with voice, harp, and loop pedal. Modern Anthems—bold debut project blending cinematic piano with lyric-driven hooks — think Florence meets Alicia in a London warehouse.

I’m Elizabeth Tillotson, founder of The Magnificent Singer. Some music things I was fortunate to learn as a little girl — choral training, cello, harmony. Others were a hard-won struggle. I think it’s worth it. I’ve taught umpteen others to find their sound and style, and carve out their corner in the world of singing. Get started by mapping out your next move. This studio brings together the two worlds I’ve always cared about: music and the visual arts.
…but was too painfully nervous to ever perform with confidence as myself in front of crowd. It couldn’t be further from where I am now, in the middle of planning my own Sassy, Swinging Jazz, Cabaret Show. Through The Magnificent Singer I have gained great knowledge and confidence to not only look forward to performing on stage no matter how big or small but also as someone who can turn up with confidence at a last minute gig having never rehearsed with the band!”
