Isabella Gore

2024 Singing Scholarship Recipient

Isabella's passion for the arts, initially ignited by dancing, has evolved to encompass singing and musical theatre, which she finds exhilarating. The energy of the audience fuels her performances, inspiring her to give her all on stage and connect emotionally with her listeners through song. While she feels like she's been singing her whole life, Isabella has been formally training with a voice teacher for over two years, alongside her involvement in musical theatre since the age of eight.

Immersed in the creative environment at Weaver Academy, Isabella is constantly challenged to explore art from diverse perspectives by her teachers and peers, prompting her to strive for artistic growth. Attending the Summer Vocal Intensive at UNC School of the Arts offers her the opportunity to refine her vocal technique, delve into music theory, and explore various vocal genres. With aspirations for a career in musical theatre and vocal performance, Isabella is grateful for the mentors who have inspired her and aims to give back to her supportive community as she continues her artistic journey.

Isabella's journey in the arts is driven by her desire to connect with audiences and pursue her passion for performance. Through formal training, creative immersion at Weaver Academy, and opportunities like the Summer Vocal Intensive, she seeks to hone her skills and achieve her dreams while also giving back to the community that has nurtured her talent.
