Elisa Brown
Vocalist, Vocal Coach & Creator of the Soul Singing Method · Italy
Elisa Brown is a performer, vocal coach and creator of the Soul Singing method, and one of the most original voices on the Italian soul and gospel scene. Her work fuses the African-American tradition with a holistic approach to the voice, turning every concert into an intense, immersive experience.
In 2008 she was honoured by Mogol as best performer at the Tour Music Fest. Over her career she has collaborated with numerous international gospel artists and shared the stage with leading figures of Italian jazz, blues and pop. She has performed at prestigious venues and festivals, including the Blue Note in Milan, the Arena Flegrea in Naples, the Napoli Gospel Festival and the Roccella Jazz Festival.
In 2018 she released the album YRROS and wrote the track Give Me Some Peace, relaunched in 2020 as a message of peace and inclusion. Together with musician Daniele Fabio she created the project Na Vuce Antica, dedicated to the meeting of Italian folk traditions and African-American roots.
Alongside her concert work she teaches through the Soul Singing method, integrating vocal technique, emotional expression and personal growth. She has held masterclasses and directed numerous choral projects in Italy and abroad, strengthening her bond with international gospel through experiences in Yonkers (New York) and a humanitarian tour in Canada in 2024.
Today Elisa Brown offers an artistic path in which the voice becomes an instrument of encounter, identity and transformation.
Our Magical Location—Santa Domenica Talao
Santa Domenica Talao is a beautiful Italian mountain town in the province of Cosenza, Calabria. The territory is part of the Pollino National Park. The town is home to a large percentage of artists who appreciate the commanding views that overlook the seaside village of Scalea. Palazzo Campagna is the central building in the village. It originally belonged to a prominent doctor and his family who served the region in the 17th century. Now the curator of the palazzo, Wilma Laudrau, offers the space as an event center and as accommodations. The garden grounds are groomed to stage the Tyrrhenian Jazz Festival from July 30 – August 2, 2026. Please join us for this unforgettable event.
