Testimonials

“Mr Vasili, at my request and booking, sang for the Annual Banquet of the Wandsmen of St Paul’s Cathedral, London held at the Livery Hall of the Worshipful Company of Cutlers, Warwick Lane, London. Such an important occasion such as this, by tradition, requires an exceptional standard of performance, and Mr Vasili was acknowledged as possibly the finest Operatic singer the occasion had welcomed in the last 20 years. Someone involved in the world of opera in the Arts for 50 or more years, I consider Mr Vasili to be a prodigious talent with hopefully great musical and professional future.”

Patrick Wilkins, secretary of the Society of the Knights of the Round Table

Annual Banquet of the Wandsmen of St Paul’s Cathedral, London

Although it was not the ideal environment to perform, Vasili was 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 Vasili progresses in his career, and I hope he will let me know if there are other opportunities to hear him sing. Together with an excellent accompanist, he provided the highlight of the evening, and I couldn’t have asked for more.”

Opera Singers are specialised and skilled performers who train extensively in music and theatre to perform the Opera. A celebrated and demanding dramatic art form that combines musical score and text. Their particular and unusual set of skills arises from the demands of their art form. An opera is a combination of both music and theatre. Opera singers are required to do a lot more than just sing. They merge their astounding musical skill with impressive acting as well as mobility to bring the work of composers to life.

Whether cast as an operatic soloist or chorus member, the singer’s work on a production begins with rehearsals, in which the performers focus on the interpretation and reading of the text almost as if it were a play. Soloists, chorus members, and the orchestra gather regularly for separate music rehearsals that are led by a conductor. In weeks leading up to the final performance, opera singers may spend up to six hours a day rehearsing!

There are a wide variety of different types of opera singers. A Soprano is a type of classical singing female voice that has the highest vocal range of all voice types. In music that is written in four parts, the Soprano is the highest. The term derives from the Italian sopra (“above”) and corresponds to the earlier Latin term superius. Luciano Pavarotti, Andrea Bocelli, Mirella Freni and many more Italian Opera performers paved the way for many other talented singers in Opera through the inspiration of their work throughout the decades. Opera was born in Italy around the year 1600, and Italian Opera has continued to play a dominant role in the history of the form until the present day.

“Largo al factotum” is one of the most profound and popular operatic compositions. It is sung as the first entry in the opera ‘The Barber of Seville’ by well-known composer Rossini. Despite it being one of the most challenging compositions for a baritone to perform, it is still used in the comedy animated series ‘Tom and Jerry’.
