Una Furtiva Lagrima

A recording of Jonathan this aria from Donizelli.  It was recorded early in 2012 at the Loughton Youth Music Festival. Tweet

A Selfie

This is the photograph which had Twitter all twittering  last week.  It’s seldom Jonathan posts ‘selfies’ but I thought, for those of you who don’t use Twitter, you would like to see it.

He’s gearing up for his tour with Russell Watson, but it’s good to know he’s making time for relaxation too. Tweet

Calling All Tweeters

Isn’t this a happy photograph?  I think it was taken by Bente’s husband Bjarge at the Katie Holmes Trust concert in Preston.

A fan Twitter account has been set up in an attempt to promote Jonathan and his tweets.

Can I ask all of you to add @TheFantoines to any tweets you make to him, then we can retweet them.  Much appreciated.

I’ll put a link to the fan Twitter page in the right hand column >>>> then all you lovely readers can see what’s going on with one click.

Jonathan’s Pinternet Photo Page

The über-talented Diego Bras Harriott designed the above banner for Yuri’s Facebook page.  Yuri, as you can see, is Japanese.  Fantoines certainly are worldwide and growing at a rapid pace!

Diego has also started a Pinternet page showing photographs of Jonathan.

Please visit and note that it will be updated regularly.  Lots of up-to-date photos to come.

14-year-old Jonathan - Bring Him Home (video)

Isn’t it wonderful to be a part of this young man’s journey into the world of music?

His ability to sing crossover as well as classical is astonishing.  Few classical singers pull it off and Jonathan is one of the few.

At 14 years of age, he was bursting with talent. Now we can witness it developing. Tweet

'Valentine for Jonathan Antoine 2014’ - video

Thanks to ‘Anna Mae’ who I’ve heard is a male fan of Jonathan’s.  He thanked those whose photos he used in the production.

Aren’t Jonathan’s fans some of the most lovely and devoted people?  That’s because this young man has something so very special. There are plenty superlatives to describe his singing but few to describe Jonathan the man.  All I can say is he gives himself totally when he sings - he doesn’t just ‘perform’.

The words ‘touches my soul’ are often mentioned when people describe him. Certainly his voice sooths my soul when it’s a little troubled and I know of only two singers have done that in my lifetime of 56 plus 20% tax. They didn’t quite reach the spot Jonathan does. 

This is beautiful. I hope you agree. Tweet
