Hello there!
My name is Francois and I am a classically trained Bass- Baritone with singing experience in the classical, Opera, theatre, CCM, Gospel, Soul, R&B, and World genres.
My undergrad is in Music and I've studied classical and Operatic vocal performance in the US, Italy, and in London at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.
I am available for various gigs including weddings, funerals, celebrations of life, bar and bah mitzvahs, quinceneras and any other events in which you envision live classical music. I am fluent in French, English, and Spanish and have sung Italian, German, Hebrew, Latin, Polish, Swahili, Bulu, Mandarin Chinese and many others.
Please reach out with all inquiries and I would be happy to get back to you within 24-48 hours.
Have a wonderful day.
I have a small sound system than fill up a room seating about 100 people. If you have an integrated sound system I'm happy to show up early and do a sound check prior to start time.
