Cinderella Ksebati

A versatile performer, content creator, and educator, Ksebati passionately shares her love for classical, musical theater, and jazz music through both online and in-person platforms.

ONLINE COMMUNITY
Ksebati founded Sing with Cinderella, an online music education program on YouTube, in 2020. Since then, it has grown into a global community of over 9.8 million viewers, with a library of 400+ videos designed to help singers and musicians unlock their full potential.

Expanding on this mission, she created Ace the Audition, an in-depth online course designed to equip singers with the skills and strategies needed to audition successfully. This program offers structured guidance to help performers refine their technique, build confidence, and stand out in competitive settings.

She is also a published creator on Amazon, offering two practical tools for singers. The journals help musicians create structured plans, turning small, intentional steps into meaningful progress based on the “Practice. Progress. Perform.” philosophy. The companion manuscript, designed by a musician for musicians, provides space to stay organized and inspired.

IN-PERSON PROGRAM
Ksebati maintains a private vocal studio with 16 select students, offering personalized coaching to aspiring singers. She also serves as a guest music director of musicals and vocal clinician for choral programs across Michigan. Ksebati’s study in K–12 music education alongside performance gives her a comprehensive understanding of vocal and musical development across all stages of learning.

Ksebati has had the opportunity to perform at prestigious venues such as the Kennedy Center, with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, and as a soloist in Argentina.

Her accolades include recognition as a MET Competition district competitor, American Pops Orchestra finalist, John Knapp Friends of Opera Encouragement Winner, First Prize George Shirley Competition winner, NATS National Finalist, and Songbook Academy finalist, where Michael Feinstein praised her “velvet” jazz tone.
