“You were amazing, and your stunning performance immeasurably enhanced our time at Penshurst” Alison Weir (Evening performance for Alison Weir Tours)
“Working with The Tudor Songbook has been an absolute delight. Jays professionalism, exceptional musicianship and stunning voice bring the music of the Tudor era to life in a truly captivating way. The performances create an immersive experience that transports audiences back in time.
The events have not only enriched the atmosphere of Speke Hall, but have also attracted new visitors, engaging them with the very music the Norris family would have enjoyed. The combination of historical accuracy and outstanding artistry makes The Tudor Songbook a remarkable addition to our programming, and we look forward to welcoming Jay back for future performances.”
Lorraine Lett, Programming & Partnerships officer, Speke Hall, Liverpool
“We have been asked to pen a few words about this incredible musician, a task we are more than happy to undertake. One of our great loves is the human voice and in this we regard ourselves somehow fussy and we believe that Jay just ‘hits’ the right note. The timbre and projection of her voice is second to none. She also manages to inject a pathos into her repertoire that brings out the full emotional spectrum of the songs she is performing. Her musical performance is matched by her outgoing and very pleasant character. We found her punctual, reliable and well organized as well as flexible and taking our ideas on board, implementing them perfectly in her program. We whole heartily recommend her to anyone 100%.”
— Tom and Brigitte Webster, The Tudor and 17th Century Experience
“After our extremely successful, sold out concert in December 2021, I cannot recommend The Tudor Songbook. highly enough. Jay’s voice is utterly spellbinding. Her understanding of the history and the way she presented herself in the Tudor gowns elevated the performance to something really spectacular. Staggeringly versatile, she delivered a diverse and entertaining programme of songs that kept our audience captivated all evening. So much so that we have asked her to return for another event this summer. She was friendly and engaging with members of our audience after the performance, and happy to answer questions and pose for photos. This is the kind of concert that would sound at home in the most prestigious of venues and we are thrilled to have her performing for us at Harvington Hall ”
