About Me

My photo
I am a 14 year old singer, living in Cardiff. I love to sing I have sung with the Welsh National Opera, in tours of Carmen, The Magic Flute, Turandot and La Boheme. I have also sung as a soloist at the Wales Festival of Remembrance at St David's Hall, and I've sung with Russell Watson on Keith Lemon's Lemonaid (ITV). I have also sung as part of the WNO Singing Club, performing in front of Prince Charles and guests at Buckingham Palace. I am a fluent Welsh speaker. My recent change from soprano to baritone has given me new challenges and opportunities. My vocal teacher is Carla Maney (famous for her appearances on BBC's The Voice) - see her website on the link below.

Competition next weekend

Getting a bit nervous now - everyone bangs on about expression and flapping your arms about - why isn't just singing it good enough?  I suppose it's what everyone expects.  I might do a bit more busking this weekend to see if I can try out a few moves etc.

Busking yesterday

Had a great time, lots of people made kind comments, and were generous with their contributions.  The weather was good, which helped.  Here's a photo of me warbling:

Busking on Saturday

Forgot to say - I'll  be busking by the churchyard railings opposite the entrance to Queens Arcade, from about 11:00 on.

Busking on Saturday

I'm going to see if I can earn a bit of pocket money on Saturday by busking in  Cardiff city centre.  I give 10% of my earnings to my favourite charity The Kakapo Recovery Programme - their link is on the left hand side of the page.  Have a look - kakapos are such great birds, and I'd hate for them to become extinct.

New project

Just started rehearsal for a British Heart Foundation 50th Anniversary Gala Concert at the St David's Hall, Cardiff on Sunday 8th May 2011.  We'll be doing hits from a number of musicals, and today we brushed up our routine from Oliver!, picking a pocket or two.  It's a worthy cause, so please support it - see the link opposite.
