Bass-Baritone

More about my performances in over 20 operas and 2000 concerts.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with James every year since 2012. He’s such an exciting and versatile singer, and one of the easiest soloists to work with. His stage presence and his feel for the text are matched by a superlative vocal technique. I always look forward to our concerts together.

More about masterclasses, adjudicating competitions, workshops and conducting.

James’s performance class with our young singers was perfectly pitched. He was able to offer expert advice to all of them in a positive and entertaining way and he impressed everyone with his own solo singing.
