"JUST BOOK THIS GUY!!!"
"The very first Music of the Night event was headlined by this versatile classically trained Opera singer at Sewerby Hall and Gardens.
Set in a most enchanting of locations, hundreds of visitors of all ages enjoyed a breathtaking evening performance of popular Opera classics.
Even the onset of the rain towards the end of the concert failed to dampen the crowds’ spirit as Richard’s magnificent voice echoed across Bridlington Bay.
A night to be remembered by all."
Myles Bacon, East Riding Council

"Richard came to sing at my fathers 70th birthday celebrations on a narrowboat. He entertained us throughout the afternoon not only with his great repertoire but also his affable and personable nature entertaining every guest. My father was very happy and each guest praised Richard's appearance. What made the day more remarkable was the fact that I called Richard at 9am on Sunday morning and he agreed to sing even though the barge departed at 1pm, after the singer we had booked cancelled at 8.45am! Richard had appeared in London the previous night and had a late night. I will highly recommend Richard to anybody!"
