Funeral Singer
If you are viewing my page due to a bereavement, I would like to extend my deepest sympathy to you and your family at this time. I’ve sung on behalf of Family’s and Funeral Directors for many years but it’s more than my job as I realise how emotional arranging music for a loved one can be. I try to care for each family by guiding them through their choices as smoothly as possible and by singing during the funeral with sincerity and reverence.
As I’m a Mezzo Soprano and a singer of jazz and popular music, I’ve an extensive repertoire of songs, hymns and aria’s. If I don’t know a song you’d love, I’ll do my best to learn it for you.
If your Church Organist is unavailable I can arrange a musician(s) Pianist, Violinist, Guitarist

Music during a requiem mass can be uplifting and a great source of comfort and consolation, it can also express how we feel more than words.
