About me
Short description of my voice:Baritone timbre. Professional singer, doing a Paul Robeson play, though not his deep register! Nigerian, British-public-school educated, so a unique voice - never fully British, but the Yoruba is there waiting to surface when required. Ideal to take over from the fake African voices one hears too often in BBC drama.
Additional skills:
Operatic to a very high standard, and jazz singing. Baritone.
