Jonathan’s tour begins tomorrow so I thought you may enjoy another video from the Preston concert, recorded and posted by Jonathan’s sister Charlotte. The ending is spine-tingling. I hope you agree. Fantoines are in for such a treat in the coming weeks when they hear these two tenors. Jonathan commented on his Facebook page the other day that he may be singing a duet with Russell at the concerts. Many of us are hoping there may be more than one! Tweet
There must be great excitement in the Antoine household these days as preparations are made for Jonathan to tour with Russell Watson. He mentioned, on his Facebook page, that he collected his new suit on Tuesday. I wonder which colour he chose this time - perhaps a wine or maybe purple, who knows. The tour starts on 19 March and the first concert will take place in Sheffield. I believe Fantoines will be at every concert supporting ‘our boy’ and hoping to say hello to him at the stage door. His patience is exceptional on these occasions and he makes time for each and everyone. So thank you Jonathan and may your tour be an outstanding success. Of that we have no doubt, have we Fantoines?Tweet
Jonathan has announced on his Facebook page that he will be joining Russell Watson, on his national tour, from the 19 March. The tour dates are here but please note that at present Jonathan will not be appearing on 10 April at Brighton, 12 April at Southend or 13 April at Oxford. At long last he is coming to Scotland and will be with Russell at the Glasgow Concert Hall on Saturday 28 March. Already Fantoines are making arrangements to come to concerts from the US and Europe, so if you would like tickets please reserve as soon as possible. I will put the dates in the ‘events’ link above.

Some Fantoines make amazing images. Here’s one done by Bonnie who lives in the US. Some of the comments include ‘marvellous’, ‘powerful’ and ‘intense’ - all really suited to this photo taken on 6 December at the Katy Holmes Trust event in Preston. Tweet
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
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
Jonathan is feeling better and should be well enough to perform with Russell Watson in Preston on Friday 6 December for the Katie Holmes Trust. There are still some tickets available and these can be purchased through the Trust’s website or by phoning Preston Guild Hall. I believe the staff are very helpful. (The photo here was taken when Jonathan appeared with Charlotte at QVC UK in the middle of October).Tweet
