"Although it was not the ideal environment in which to perform, they were incredibly accommodating and made the best of it. There were some real opera fans in the audience and they were in raptures about these two voices. I shall watch as The Classical Opera Tenor and Anna progress in their careers, and I hope that they will let me know should there be other opportunities to hear them sing. Together with their excellent accompanist, they provided the highlight of the evening and I couldn't have asked for more."

Sincere apologies if this did not happen. I could not have wished for a better day on Sunday and have received lovely thank you cards making particular reference to your wonderful performance. I do hope that we are able to hear you sing again in the future. Once again special thanks, Veronica."

Verified booking on FixTheMusic"Dear Classical Opera Tenor, I wanted to thank you very much for your astonishing contribution to the successful evening. Your singing and charming presence turned the evening into something truly magical. We were blessed by the beautiful weather and a very attentive and appreciative audience. As you know, not everyone there was very knowledgeable about opera but they all came away wanting to learn more and that is a truly wonderful achievement on your part. The way you explained the background to each song enhanced the experience for everyone. For all of us, the emotion you put into the singing was very moving. Thank you, very much, again for everything you gave that night and for your wonderful voice!"
