You hear this voice and you think...
Who is that singing?
Do I know that voice? Yet it is a new voice, one that makes you want to hear more...

Bea made her professional debut dancing for George Balanchine in Geneva, Switzerland, at age 7, when Maestro Balanchine personally selected her from Geneva's School for the Grand Theatre of Ballet for his production of The Canival of the Animals.
The daugher of an American United Nations diplomat and Italian Opera singer, Bea was born in Cairo, Egypt, then lived in London for 2 years, and Geneva for 6. She studied classical piano at the Conservatory of Music and attended the Ecole International de Geneve. Bea became fluent in four languages - Italian (her mother tongue), English, French, and Spanish - all of which she uses today, professionally and personally. When she was 14, Bea's father accepted a transfer with the U.N., and the family relocated to the New York area.
