Megan Dey-Toth

Megan grew up in the Bay Area, where she studied piano and cello and sang in the San Francisco Girls' Chorus.  She got her Bachelor's of Music from UC Santa Barbara.  She then focused on studying opera during a year in Italy on a Fulbright grant and at the Academy of Vocal Arts in Philadelphia.  She worked as a mezzo-soprano singing leading roles for 13 years.  She sang with Los Angeles Opera, San Diego Opera, Minnesota Opera, Santa Fe Opera, Glimmerglass Opera and many others.  She also appeared as a soloist with the Los Angeles Philharmonic under Esa-Pekka Salonen's baton and at Carnegie Hall.  

Her life changed dramatically and wonderfully with the birth of her first child, Oliver. And then again with his little sister, Maeve.  This was around the time that Megan, living in Princeton, NJ, started teaching Music Together.  Last year Megan and her family moved back to California to be near her family and to enjoy California!  Her interests include meditation, brain development, folksongs, the music of Bach and Richard Strauss, Native American culture, history and spirituality, family, singing rounds and walking on the beach.
