I’m very aware many of Jonathan’s fans do a great deal of work promoting his wonderful talent and this blog is just a drop in the ocean. It’s come to my notice that some of you from overseas may have difficulty seeing or hearing UK television or radio shows. Ivy Yeo is very good at ensuring her local radio station plays Jonathan’s solos and she never gives up. A pat on the back for Ivy. If even a few more of us emailed or telephoned our local radio stations as often as possible, we may manage to get ‘the Antoine word’ spread more widely. Speaking of broadcasting, I picked up a conversation on Facebook, where one American fan was saying how frustrated she was at not being able to view ‘live’ UK television shows. One fan, who lives in the middle east, suggested they try the live streaming website Filmon.com and says it’s the best system she has found. Give it a try. I can’t experiment from here because I’m in the UK. Remember, Jonathan, along with Charlotte, is singing on BBC1 Songs of Praise this Sunday (22nd December)and the programme starts at 4.35pm (GMT). (The photo on this post is Jonathan at Preston. When I find out the photographer I will give them the credit due here). Tweet
Jonathan is out and about entertaining some very lucky people with his wonderful voice. One tweet (of many complimentary ones) appeared this morning saying:
In case you don’t know Elemis is an international skincare company. It seems a good time was had by all if the above photos, which accompanied the tweet, are anything to go by! Who couldn’t enjoy Jonathan’s singing.
Uploaded by Jonathan’s sister Charlotte (not to be confused with Charlotte Jaconelli). Perhaps they should be Charlotte A and Charlotte J in future, just to avoid confusion. Thanks Charlotte (A)!Tweet
This video was taken by Fantoine Debby Beal Lote at the Preston Concert. For all lovers of Les Miserables, enjoy. You’ll never hear it sung so well.Tweet
This coming Friday, 13 December, Jonathan will be singing in Chichester Cathedral. His singing teacher Sara Reynolds, also teaches at Seaford College and she will be conducting the junior choir in the afternoon and the senior choir in the evening. The events start at 2.30 and 7.30pm respectively. Sara has been a major influence on Jonathan’s progress in the past three years so here is a photograph of her with him, just in case you do live in that area and are able to attend one or both concerts.
I’ve been to a few concerts in Chichester Cathedral and I’m quite sure you won’t be disappointed. Such a wonderful acoustic environment is very suited to Jonathan’s voice. Oh, I forgot to say, I’ve heard he’s singing ‘O Holy Night’.Tweet
Some great photos by the lovely Bente Hemmingson who came all the way from Denmark for the event at Preston Guild Hall. You can see others on her Facebook page. Just click on the link above. Thanks Bente.Tweet
A lovely photo of Russell and Jonathan during a rehearsal for the Katie Holmes Trust concert this coming Friday in Preston. It’s going to be a great night!Tweet
