Bookings
Abigail can turn her very versatile voice to many genres and enjoys singing at special occasions such as weddings and corporate functions.The most important event in many family's lives can be transformed into an even more memorable occasion by having a confident vocalist throughout the service. For church ceremonies, it works particularly well having music during the signing of the register (usually two songs) and upon entrances and exits. If you are getting married in a stately home, hotel or other venue, from the moment you walk down the aisle to the moment you leave as a married couple, all your musical needs will also be met. Abigail is able to accompany herself on the piano, arrange for an organ accompaniment or organise further musicians to create an ensemble. Alongside professional flautist, Laura Bartlett, Abigail has performed at over 100 weddings. Together they have 'captivated' and 'moved' wedding parties with beautiful arrrangements of vocal duets uniquely written for flute and voice.
