Photo of Murielefrenchsinger Murielefrenchsinger "It was a pleasure having Muriele Frenchsinger perform at this year's Concours des Légendes at Wilton. Her set was a great addition to the event, and she brought a lovely atmosphere that our guests really enjoyed. Muriele is professional, easy to work with, and a talented vocalist. I would highly recommend." Based in Winchester, England (31 miles from Reading) 24th August 2026 Geoff Love - Concours des Legendes Wilton House Photo of Oh la la! Oh la la!
