Leslie Dorst

English (North American) is native tongue. Southern dialect (Tennessee), older NY Jewish woman who smokes, "Valley girl/surfer girl," various cartoon type characters, operatic singer voice

I have done some narration for Christian children's musicals out of Nashville, TN. I also sang in a "straight tone" child's voice for many choral demos in Nashville as well. I recently did a live performance as a narrator for the Naples Philharmonic in a symphonic piece called "Wolf Tracks." I have been a diction coach for years, but am rather new in voiceover work as "talent." I have my Bachelor of Music and Master of Music degrees in Vocal Performance. I have been singing and acting for years in opera, musicals, cabaret and studio singing. I also teach singing at a collegiate level. I am used to working spontaneously with my communication skills. I teach voice and Pilates, which require me to constantly read the person/situation in the moment and to use creative means to achieve a desired result. Because of this, I have learned to find the perfect wording/imagery/attitude to relate to whoever I have in front of me.
