Review Centre: Opera Singers

"It is not easy to find musicians who combine artistic talent, experience and the ability to understand a couple's needs. With this trio, we found everything we were looking for and much more. They carefully managed every musical detail, from selecting the repertoire to organizing the practical aspects of the day. Their availability and support throughout the planning process were invaluable. During the religious ceremony, the music created an atmosphere of great emotion and spirituality. Every performance was flawless and perfectly suited to the context of the celebration. Later, during the reception, they provided elegant and refined background music that made the time spent with family and friends even more enjoyable. Our guests continuously complimented the quality of the music and the sophistication of the performances. What impressed us most was their ability to convey genuine emotion through every note they played and sang. Thanks to their contribution, our wedding became even more beautiful and memorable. We recommend their services wholeheartedly and without hesitation."

"Our company had Saira perform "Barcelona" by Freddie Mercury and Monserrat Caballe to open our 1500-person award show in Barcelona in April. Saira was a delight to work with from start to finish. She offered song suggestions for our opening number and once we locked in our song, she made sure to keep in touch about how she was reworking the song to sound the best from stage. Saira was always easy to get in touch with, quick to reply and had so much patience with us throughout the entire process. Saira pivoted with ease on a last minute change we had one week before the show, and she was beyond professional onsite. We certainly hope we can work with Saira again in the future and would highly recommend her for other performances! Thank you, Saira! "

"Another real (and unexpected) highlight of the White Nights festival was ‘Apotheosis’ at 162 North Street, billed as a ‘performance of voice’ this was undersold as what we actually saw was an explosion of incredibly talented people, projected from a balcony on a stunning dressed and lit building. It promised much, as do a lot of these free festivals shows, but this one delivered. Each hour, three different singers appeared, one after another on the balcony to serenade us with a diverse selection of music, showcasing not just their voices, but also cultural background. I was so impressed with the first show that I went back for two of the others six. Opening the first performance was a series of tolling bells, very low key and then a women, dressed in black with swept up hair and a smile appeared on the balcony, the music struck up and her voice thrilled and echoed off the surrounding buildings as the crowd was pulled in. It was a stunning opening and the singer, Sam Chara received a huge round of applause from the hefty crowd. It’s not easy to both keep and please a crowd at a free festival event, especially with such thick competition only steps away, but this vibrant , young singer charmed and thrilled the crowd with her beautiful, sad and bel-canto rendition of ‘Un bel di’ from Madam Butterfly, I went back for the 10pm show, the crowds knew what to expect by this point, extra stewards had to be drawn in contain the buzzing expectant crowd and once again Sam Chara opening the show with a breathtaking ‘Una voce poco fa’ by Rossini, as the huge red satin banners undulated in the wind under their stark lights, New Road was once again transformed by this young ladies voice into a living outdoor opera set, it was superb performance, technically brilliant and with a verve and passion that was confidently on show. Ten out of ten for this part of the white nights festival,"

"Caroline was fantastic, wow, so impressed, please don't hesitate, you won't be sorry, I don't like to use the phase value for money but she far out stripped my expectations, she should be charging £1000's, she was so friendly and sorted everything out with the vicar and organist, my Dad would have loved her but as she sang like an angel maybe he did."

"Shaza is incredibly talented and such a awesome person. Shaza performed at our wedding and it was a vibe. She engaged the wedding guest, created a fun atmosphere and entertained them with a massive variety of genres. She is super professional and I would definitely recommend anyone looking for live entertainment to make use of Shaza."

"From our very first contact, it was clear that we were dealing with true professionals. Communication was always friendly, efficient and transparent, and we felt supported throughout every stage of planning the musical aspect of our wedding. They provided numerous suggestions for the repertoire and helped us choose the best options for our church and the style of our ceremony. On the wedding day, they exceeded all expectations. The bride’s entrance accompanied by the violin was simply beautiful, while the soprano’s voice created an atmosphere filled with emotion and elegance. Every piece was performed with precision, sensitivity and exceptional artistry. Even the priest complimented the quality of the music and the professionalism demonstrated throughout the ceremony. Many of our guests asked for the musicians’ contact details because they were so impressed by the performances. If you are looking for reliable, experienced musicians capable of making your wedding truly unique, we wholeheartedly recommend this trio without hesitation."

"We knew we wanted someone to sing at our mum's funeral as it was a church service with under 40 people attending. Through word of mouth, we were lucky to find Sarah. I reached out to her and she could not have been more lovely, professional and reassuring. At the worst time of our life we found her just so empathetic in a professional way and intuitive. She gladly liaised with the funeral director and the organist and gently took our worries away by suggesting what would be best. The organist wasn't great in my opinion and played a few dodgy notes but Sarah's singing did not falter. She was impeccable. Whilst we were sad, I felt Sarah honoured my mum with the most beautiful heartfelt transcendent voice...singing those hymns she was mesmerising and felt without her input and wonderful performance the service would not have been a tribute in the way that it was. Mum would have loved her, as did everyone. I don't give praise lightly but she was incredible and I connot praise her lovely personality, compassion and spellbinding voice enough. Thank you so much Sarah for helping us xxx (10 / 10)"

"The very first time we heard Gemma Ashley sing, she performed "In the Arms of an Angel" on a YouTube channel. We absolutely loved her voice and knew she would be the ideal singer for our Christmas wedding in 2022, and we were so fortunate that our wedding date suited her diary. Little did we know, then, that Gemma would - in a metaphorical sense - come to provide those very angelic, reassuring arms for us on our wedding day, as we were faced with a number of unexpected challenges (including train strikes, snow chaos, and traffic delays). It all added to the stresses of the day, particularly for the bridal party, who were not sure they would even make it to wedding in time. However, the moment we entered the Church and were met by Gemma's soaring aria as she performed her opening song to the Groom ("Nella Fantasia"), any worries and anxieties magically disappeared. Instead, a wonderful sense of calm and serenity descended - like arms of an angel - where Gemma's song, accompanied on the piano by amazing Paolo Freitas, literally transported us to a breathtakingly beautiful, almost etheral, space in time. From that point, everything fell into place, and Gemma became our guiding light and steadfast beacon for the rest of the day and evening. Not only was she our amazing soprano for our wedding ceremony, singing five songs in four different languages (Italian, Latin, Portuguese and English!), but she single-handedly provided the full musical entertainment for our wedding reception, covering everything from Depeche Mode to Abba - and even led the wedding party in a surprise Les Miserables flash mob! We are indebted to Gemma for making our wedding day the huge and unforgettable success that it was; her work ethic and professionalism is second to none, and her warmth, great sense of humour and generosity of spirit is something we will never forget. We feel we did not just hire a singer for our special day, but a true artist who engaged everyone with her presence and creative performance, and who has become a friend for life. We cannot recommend Gemma enough. She will bring joy and light and life-time memories to any special events, giving 110% until the very moment the lights go out for the night. Perhaps the greatest testament to the lasting effect that Gemma had on our wedding day was when the Priest himself leaned over and whispered to us during the ceremony: "Where did you find this singer? She is fantastic." We would only like to add that choosing this lovely young woman to sing at our wedding, and at the reception, was one of the best, if not the best, decision, that we made when arranging our wedding. Thank you so much, Gemma. We love you xxx. Anna Hammerin and David Markham "

"Mr. Bäumler came to my parents-in-law's diamond wedding with his Italian programme. He captivated the guests and my parents-in-law from the very first second. His performance was an absolute success, he succeeded in transporting the celebrating couple to their old homeland through his singing. Due to the Corona edition, the celebration took place only in a small setting, in small rooms, even here Mr. Bäumler could fully convince with the acoustic sound and the voluminous voice. Mr. Bäumler is a very uncomplicated and likeable person, a gifted singer and an enrichment for every celebration. We can highly RECOMMEND him for any celebration !!!!"

"I found Sarah, by chance, looking for a soprano to sing at my mother's funeral in 2022. Sadly for me, the funerals of my husband and father happened in succession all to quickly over the next two years. Sarah provided all occasions with such grace. We worked together to create something very special. Nothing is too much trouble for Sarah, she was able to suggest music from repertoire but also took on music she did not know, and sang all beautifully. Her voice and presence was a rock to me and everyone commented on the beauty of her voice. I would highly recommend Sarah for all occasions - happy, sad, fun, solemn and she will deliver a bespoke service. I remain deeply grateful to know Sarah and now call her a friend!"
