As modern-day troubadours, we combine our voices with the enchanting timbre of our Spanish guitars to create an entirely unique sound in our live shows, crafting our own renditions of songs spanning different eras and styles. With hauntingly beautiful harmonies and an extensive repertoire ranging from operatic showstoppers to classical duets, iconic film themes to folk and ballads, Trovatori is the perfect choice for concerts, festivals, corporate and other event.
We have sung all over the world performing in concert halls, theatres and churches, as well as at music festivals and many corporate and private events. We have appeared as guest artists for many luxury cruise companies such as Cunard, Holland America and Saga, as well as headline entertainers for Warner Leisure Hotels.
Our two albums, Songs from here, there and everywhere and Songseekers, were recently added to the British Library's National Sound Archive.
If you'd rather have a traditional tenor and soprano duet accompanied by either backing tracks or pianist, we can do that too! Feel free to message us with your requirements and we'll be happy to quote for you.
Let us take you on a journey through our world of enchanting music and entertaining stories with an unforgettable performance. Get in touch now for a quote for your event!

A spaceman came travelling
Angels from the realms of glory
Away in a manger
Deck the Halls
Ding dong, merrily on high
Gaudete
God rest ye, merry gentlemen
Good King Wenceslas
Hark! The herald angels sing
Have yourself a merry little Christmas

In dulce jubilo
In the bleak midwinter
It came upon the midnight clear
Jingle bells
Joy to the world
Let it snow
Lo! How a rose e’er blooming
Mary’s boy child
Mary, mary
Miri it is
O come, all ye faithful
O come, o come Emmanuel
O holy night
O little town of Bethlehem

See amid the winter’s snow
Silent night

Still, still, still

For acoustic sets just a parking space and room for ourselves with two guitars.
For amplified sets an area of 6' by 6' for our PA, stands and mics if needed.
Yes, we’re completely self contained. We bring our own PA system to all of our gigs as well as a simple lighting rig.
We need to know any directions that will help us find the venue and find the right place to load in our equipment.
We’re happy to play music from Spotify before, after and between our sets. We’re happy to choose the music ourselves or let the client choose the music.
We love performing at all kinds of events, and any gig is our favourite where we can communicate and connect to our audience!
We have an eclectic range of influences between us! To name a few: Franco Corelli, Maria Callas, Giacomo Puccini, Ralph Vaughan-Williams, Sting, Kate Bush, John Denver, Joan Baez... the list goes on! The greatest song of all time is another difficult one to answer... we'll go with one of our favourite songs to sing together - "The Impossible Dream".
We met singing in opera and formed the duo. At first we performed with pianist and/or backing tracks, but we added the guitars so that we're completely self contained and can travel anywhere together to sing!
We love performing in concert in music festivals, churches, theatres, village halls... but generally just love performing!
If full PA is required, set up time is 30 minutes
For acoustic sets, set up time only 15 minutes
Performance times range from one or two songs for wedding ceremonies or other special occasions to a full 1 hour and 30 minutes for a headlining show.
Performances for cabaret slots are usually between 30 mins - 1 hour.
We’re happy to play outside but we ask for shade, a flat level surface and a power supply close to the performance area if amplification is needed.
We can learn specific songs before the event but we usually limit this to 3 songs. The clients are welcome to pick a set list from our repertoire or let us choose the music for them.
"Enchanting", "beautiful harmonies", "authentic and original".
“Experience a fusion of classical elegance, operatic grandeur and a rich tapestry of folk and contemporary music. Trovatori bring a fresh twist to a diverse range of songs."
