Libby Donald

Born and raised in Australia, Libby Donald found her way into music early—and never looked back. Her love for performing began in her teens when she discovered theatre, thank you drama class! That moment lit the path to where she is today.

Libby holds a Diploma of Music Performance from the Canberra Institute of Technology and a Bachelor of Music Performance (Voice) from the Australian National University. She has additional training in vocal pedagogy, early childhood music education and piano studies. After completing university, she made the move to Vancouver, Canada, where she continues to perform and teach.

Whether it’s working with beginners or more experienced vocalists of any age, Libby is passionate about helping people find their voice. She believes music is for everyone—a universal language that brings us together—and she's especially excited about sharing her love for musical theatre repertoire in a warm, inclusive, and joy-filled space.

When she’s not in the studio or classroom, you’ll find her on stage or screen—performing in opera, musical theatre, or film. Musical theatre remains her first love, it’s the perfect mix of storytelling, song, and creativity.
