A veritable table of dates, ideas, and inspiration.

The coming year's event calendar is almost complete.
Singing alone and working on technique online is great, but the real magic happens when you come together with others who share your passion.
There are plenty of opportunities on the drawing board to do just that — focused weekends and joyful solo singing, special projects and in-person events to help you deepen your love for singing and connect with like-minded singers. Watch out for the application deadline dates!

Applications close this Friday, 19 September.
Join me for Sing Joyfully 2025, with Mozart at the helm. We’ll meet in Chandler’s Ford, Hampshire, on 15–16 November for a weekend of small ensemble singing, stagework, shared solos, and the kind of precision that makes Mozart so rewarding — from Italian arias to German Lieder and sacred works. A relaxed performance rounds off this much-loved annual musical gathering. Click the image to find out more and to make your voice heard!
Join me for the VoiceWorks Spring Study Weekend, Eight American Greats. We’ll meet in Winsham, Somerset, on 17–18 January 2026 to explore an intriguing mix of American song, from Amy Beach to Bernstein and more. This is very much a study weekend, digging into my own choice of songs alongside you, all of us uncovering new gems together. Click the image to find out more. Please note: because of Christmas, applications close early, on Friday, 21 November.

Save the dates for LYV26!
Love Your Voice 2026 will take place in Winsham, Somerset, UK, on 14–16 March. Now in its ninth year, this immersive three-day, long workshop weekend for classical solo singers offers something different each day: a focus on artistry and expression, an opportunity to sing with an accompanist in a beautiful music studio, and a study day dedicated to your vocal technique. You can choose the day or days that suit you best, or come for all three! Full details and booking will be available before Christmas, but for now, please save those dates!
Inspiration in Progress
I also write on The Classical Singer’s Path, my Substack. This is new to me: a quieter, more personal corner, where I share as a singer among singers rather than as a teacher. It’s where I reflect on my own journey, share recordings or stories, and sometimes open conversations that you’re welcome to join in the comments. Subscription is free right now, and if you’d like to come and share your own experiences, I'd love that too.
