Recordings
My next CD is now being recorded. To reserve a copy in advance please email me.
The CD will include a selection of beautiful Italian and French arias including some of my favourite Puccini arias and some crossover songs like
Time to Say Goodbye and Canto Della Terra.


As seen in OK! Magazine - Wed 10 Oct 07
If you take a look at this week's OK! Magazine you can see a photo of me performing at the charity celebrity ball for the Georgina Grace Trust at the York Racecourse
in May 2007. I performed opera and folk for the drinks reception then I was joined by my swing-jazz band to get the guests up and dancing. The night raised
£3000 for the cause.
