Hi,
I think that I've seen that girl recently via a Ross post. I'll give a guess at Rebecca Nelson. Now to go back to see if I can find what I had seen. I had done a double-take on her being Hayley and checked her out. I may well be wrong!

Am having big doubts on Rebecca Nelson now. I don't think that I would have taken her for Hayley. But I still think that I've seen that girl somewhere recently, thinking that it was Hayley, at first sight.
Now I'm thinking that I saw her in a group picture misidentified as Hayley. Shall try to find that.

No, not Rebecca Nelson. I'll give you a clue. I have met her in the last week. and she looked nothing like that. That is an even more recent photo.

Hi,
I bow out with SQ. (Never heard of her. Purely research, thanks to your clue!)

Haha, another clue might be the Rebecca Newman poster in the background. Rebecca has taken this young songbird under her wing  |

I was going to say it is Mary-Jess Leaverland but her hair colour is a bit darker in my memory.

Scarlett has just made me an official Quiglett. I told her it feels like being knighted. I met her last week, she is a lovely and talented young lady. I think she might be a very fine opera singer one day. Thanks for the video Richard, I was there of course. Scarlett is from Altricham, Cheshire, where my brother lives. He tells me he remembers being at a function that I think had something to do with railways last year. My brother was with his morris dancing group, who were part of the entertainment. He told me he was stopped in his tracks by a beautiful operatic soprano voice (he is far more into opera than I am) and walked over to listen. She was singing on some sort of trailer he said. This as I've found out was Scarlett, she told me she remembers that day. By the way she has made an album. www.scarlettsoprano.com/CD.html Martin D |

If you mean can I see the picture, then yes it works If you mean will it attract any more attention for next Sunday's concert, then who knows?  I will be there - especially looking forward to meeting the other lady in the picture and hearing her sing. Alessandra Paonessa is flying over from Canada specially for the occasion. Her recent album includes many new songs from Chris Broom, a composer also favoured by Scarlett and by Classical Reflection. She has a wonderful voice  |
