REVIEWS

  • “Some people just have it. And you, my dear, have it.”

    Kathryn Harries, former Director of the National Opera Studio, London.

  • “A brilliant, bright voice with some lovely gleaming notes at the top. She sings with considerable charm and absolute elegance.”

    Mark Wildman, former Head of Opera at the Royal Academy of Music, London.

  • “(on the role of Zerlina), there is a powerful tone to your voice and she sustains the legato line with ease. The arias were confidently sung, and excellently communicated.”

    Brian Husbands, Trinity Laban Conservatoire

  • “I really appreciate the grace and skill with which you sang. I want to encourage you to keep growing with this character, as you clearly have a wonderful connection to Susanna. A captivating performance that would carry to the very back of the MET.”

    Mark Sampson, Head of Berlin & Saluzzo Opera

  • “Lovely centred sound and beautiful legato. A beautiful performance full of musicality.”

    German Government Cup, Feis Ceoil

  • “(on the role of Adele) As always, Shauna sang with style and unrivalled elegance. This certainly was a performance of ‘high class’, and when you settled into it, it was explosive.”

    Adrian Thompson

  • “(on the role of Norma) Little to say, except EXCELLENT. Bellini himself would be proud of how you sung his opera.”

    Allen Bradshaw

  • “Lots of potential with this voice. A fine, communicative performer who uses her text well with her brilliant, bright tone.”

    Kathryn Harries, former Director of the National Opera Studio, London

  • “A beautiful voice of size and quality. A soprano to watch for.”

    Mark Wildman, former Head of Opera at the Royal Academy of Music, London.
