It has been an absolute privilege to countdown to Christmas this year as soloist for the magical Royal Liverpool Philharmonic ‘Spirit of Christmas’ concerts at home in #Liverpool

It was a joy to sing again with Conductor Ian Tracey, Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, Choir and Youth Choir & Simon Emery and to share the stage with wonderful host Dr Kadiatu Kanneh-Mason.
Thanks also to Ian and Tim Jackson for stunning arrangements of some of my favourite songs
and to Sandra Parr and the whole backstage and front of house team - who are amazing
making magical events all year round!![🎶](https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/tbe/2/16/1f3b6.png)

Also, thank you to the Liverpool Philharmonic Youth Brass Band who gifted everyone carols outside the entrance of the hall before the concert![🎺](https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t69/2/16/1f3ba.png)
