Thanks for taking time to look.
I am a Scottish Italian living as an Australian in the Melbourne area.
Graduating from the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester England with a BA Mus GRNCM. I have had an extensive career spanning continents as an opera singer. I have been fortunate enough to have worked as a freelance singer with some of the finest orchestras and conductors in the world's best opera houses. I have made recordings for radio and television as well as CD and DVD for commercial release.
My voice is best suited to the Italian repertoire of Verdi and Puccini. I have a natural 'lyrico spinto' voice with reliable high notes and a bright dramatic timbre. As well as opera, I have performed extensively in oratorio and in concert recital. I have sung much musical theatre and enjoy the challenge of working in new musical genre.
As a performer I have toured the UK extensively as part of my tenor group and opera quartet performing to audiences in theatres from major cities to remote villages.
I have worked as a composer, arranger and vocal / choral conductor for numerous choirs throughout my career.
As a teacher and vocal coach I have found myself in demand for my technical knowledge and ability to communicate technique with my students. In my performing and my teaching I hope I demonstrate my passion for the art of singing. It has been said that my teaching style is a new fresh approach to bel canto technique.
In my capacity as a professional singer I believe it is important to work as a mentor with young singers entering the profession.
"I believe in giving back to the music community"
"From the point of entering into the conservatoire I found myself singing in an assortment of professional engagements which never really stopped"
As a teacher I have worked for over 20 years with vocal students of all ages and abilities. I have been fortunate enough to have been musical director of many choirs throughout my career and enjoy conducting very much.
For the past 25+years, I've refined my technique and musicianship through performance and teaching. I have gained a broad set of skills which place me in a good position both as performer and mentor.
As well as being a professional singer, I play piano, percussion instruments, highland snare drum and drum kit.
As well as weddings, recitals, operas and corporate events, I entertain at aged care facilities. I have an extensive programme of over 1000 songs from all different styles of music and can even offer "themed programmes" from rock n' roll to jazz standards and musical theatre plus much, much more.
On an average year I will perform approximately 320 concerts to the Aged Care Facilities sector. I work with over 90 facilities around Victoria, varying from large global players to individual boutique residences, I can accommodate everyone.
