DictionBuddy’s mission is to bring a major element of Operatic Training into the 21st Century. Learning should be easy, fast, and affordable but today it is not for many opera singers. Sadly, many singers aren’t able to access these educational and training services easily and often can’t even afford to do the amount of training they would desire. DictionBuddy will change all of that by simplifying, standardizing, and globalizing access to world-class resources and training. We have created a platform that offers a library of diction recordings in several languages, made by native speakers prioritizing the diction used when SINGING. Each title in our library has 2 versions: First is a normal poetic reading with the inflection and flow of each language emphasized. The second is a slow recording where every syllable is taken slowly and given the appropriate attention so that details are not missed.
Subscription packages offers premium features with selection of monthly or annually time period and also by content requirements, explained for each.
Languages offered: Italian, French, German, English, Russian, Latin and more!

This is the first time I have come across an app for diction for singers and it is about time! This app is very easy to use and I would recommend it for all levels of singers from beginners to professional. I especially appreciate the native speaker offering two different speeds: Fast or normal speed to hear the flow of the language and a slow speed to really hear each word clearly. The repertoire they cover is vast covering art song and opera arias. Overall, this is a wonderful app to use and I highly recommend it to the classical singer community!
A fantastic resource for singers

Can’t recommend this phenomenal product enough! Their library is fantastic, and it’s obvious they’ve recorded with native speakers for each track. The interface is easy to use and I’ve been loving their Czech language update. SO helpful in a pinch. They don’t have everything yet, but the standards are there and I’m excited to see where they take this. Sometimes the app freezes up but restarting it solves the problem, not a dealbreaker at all. Definitely worth the price IMHO!
A must have for 21st Opera Singer!!

This app is literally a Godsend!! It really aides as a major help to brush up on you’re diction for arias, Art songs that you are currently working on. They even have options for any special requests arias or full roles that you are interested in studying if not yet available on the app. It’s like having you’re own personal diction coach in your pocket 24/7. Again, AMAZING app! From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Brilliant!!

As an opera singer myself, I have a deep appreciation for what it takes to prepare new repertoire. This app saves me SO MUCH TIME and SO MUCH MONEY that it’s hard to put into words. Bravo to the team on not only making a great tool, but making it also beautiful and affordable so everyone can enjoy it!! I’m recommending it to EVERYBODY!
