About Christopher

- What kind of experience do you have?

I have had a number of private pupils as well as leading creative singing workshops in schools. As a singer I have sang with Holland park opera for the past three seasons and I perform extensively as a soloist for concerts and oratorios across the UK for societies such as cartmel choral society, east Sussex choral society and Chiltern chamber choir. I also organise my own concerts, mostly around london or at home in Cumbria and I am a member of the close harmony quartet ffourtissimo, who have performed all around Britain including two tv appearances this year on the Matt Lucas awards show and Harry Hills TV Burp. I play guitar and sing frequently around London as part of the folk bands Stingo and the Ceilidh factor. I also sing for mass at 3 churches in the city of London most weeks.

- Do you have an up-to-date DBS (Disclosure & Barring Service, formerly CRB) Certificate?

I do

- Where and with whom did you train?

I trained at the Guildhall school of music and drama with Ian Kennedy who sang with the BBC singers and Gilbert and Sullivan for all.
