I think you will all agree he wears it well too!

As for the coming year, we intend to try and take you behind the scenes with Andrew’s training at the JRNCM so you can see how he has progressed since he started way back in September of 2009, we have already had a sneak preview of how his voice is developing and the feedback on this from his fans on here and on youtube has been encouraging. Andrew sends his thanks to each and everyone of you who has taken the time to leave comments about the O Come, O Come, Emmanuel performance, regardless to say it looks like the work he is doing with Jeremy Suter and the tutors at the JRNCM will help Andrew develop into the world class performer we know he is going to be.

So keep an eye on your mailbox and on here for further news about Andrew and his training. And, if you are new to the site why not drop into the forum and say hello, there’s a friendly bunch of fans on there who are more than willing to welcome you with open arms.
