Here is a small medley of some of my early music theatre performances and I thought that they may make your smile π
At this time of year I love to look back and reflect on what a great time I have had over the years. Performing has been a big part of my life so far and I hope that it will be a big part of my future too.
Great, excellent, ravissant ! 4 minutes 13 seconds of pure bliss to listen and see you performing !! You’re not going to be, You Are an Artiste!!
Merci beaucoup Pascal π

Oh…Merry Christmas… I almost forgot. I hope your voice is better.
Merry Christmas to you too. Just doing vocal warm ups at the moment, taking it easy on strict instructions from my teacher Kath. Working on compositions instead now I’m sleeping a bit better and my brains off the meds.
Best wishes
Charlotte
Neat to see what you’ve done. Hope your voice and throat have recovered. Merry Christmas from Canada.
Good to see what you’ve done.Hope your throat is getting much better. Merry Christmas!
It is Carolyn thanks, I’m on very firm instructions from my vocal teacher Kath because I have examinations in January.

Reblogged this on Emberyn's Collection of Neat Stuff.
Thanks Emberyn for the reblog I appreciate it π

Aren’t you the talented one. By the way, merry Christmas. Hope you’re taking care of that throat of yours.
It was great fun watching some of these back, the older ones are on a different format so they’re hard to see properly. My brothers in his show on Saturday at Love to Dance can’t wait to see it and Zoe my old teacher.

Thank you for this lovely medley!
Your welcome Dan, I was hoping to share some Christmas Carols on my blog, wish I’d recorded them earlier now π
Best wishes
Charlotte
Performing is your Raison d’Γͺtre as well it should be. You were born to perform and the world is a better place for it π
Ahhhh thanks Jim, that’s so true, I’m definitely out of sorts not being able to sing and go to the end of year concerts it’s been hard :/ but I’m looking forward now.
Best wishes
Charlotte
What a wonderful holiday gift. Thank you for sharing this. Keep resting and caring for that voice.
Thanks Cheryl, I used to be involved in about four shows like this each year, two of them were shows we put on in four/five days.

Reminds me of my young school days playing Oliver… not quite in your league Missy H; I think I killed half the local cat, rat and pigeon population with my warbling that year, lol.
You, on the other hand are a talented little wotsit, and this world is a better place for the music you bring to us heathens. Keep it up, we’re “luvvin’ it” π
UNCLE SPIKE
Cheers Uncle Spice, thanks for offering me a guest post on your blog I was thrilled and it cheered me up to write it ;). I would have put my version of Annie on but I saved you from it lol.
All the best
Charlotte
No worries. Check your inbox for a query… Oh, and as for Annie, I’ll leave that one to you, never my thing, lol
Ok will do π
charlotte you have got a fantastic voice no matter what you sing xx
Thanks Barbara, it’s a work in progress and I learn so much now each month.

Really enjoyed this, Charlotte, a lovely variety. Have a great Christmas and, hopefully, a very successful and rewarding 2014.
They were my Dads favourite clips. Thanks for your good luck message.

Wonderful and nostalgic! Happy new year to you!
It’s good to see where you’ve come from and what progression your making ;). I wish you a fabulous New Year too.

Marvellous, Charlotte! I love musical theatre–the acting is half the fun in singing! All right, maybe even a little more, especially when I’m doing “Anyting You Can Do” as a duet with my younger brother–you can watch part of it here on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiA4IQWGMns–our teacher couldn’t get it all filmed because he was running out of battery!
Have a Merry Christmas!
Cate
Wonderful! Hope that you are continuing to mend!
Regards
Jim
Thanks Jim, been busy today, feeling much better ;). I’ve got some company now too.

Hi Cate the link didn’t work, I love that song too.
I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and happy new year too.
Best wishes
Charlotte
Thank you for sharing that medley. Simply lovely. I’m sure that cheered you up too looking back at your younger days. π
It did I was so loud and pitchy on that Cats clip I laugh every time I watch it.
Best wishes
Charlotte
That was fun to watch. Which musical is the third clip from? I don’t recognize it.
Hi Stephanie, It’s from Chicago, it’s so hard to not join in the singing I think I did join in a couple of times :). My favourite role was Jemima in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and later as Truly Scrumptious but I couldn’t find them.
Best wishes
Charlotte
I LOVE Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. One of my favorite musicals. π
Wonderful that someone thought tape record your performances. I know you are looking forward to singing again. Dianne
Schools don’t let you tape anymore, it’s so sad because you can’t keep your memories. I have singing exams in January and have started to book some performances for next year. I can’t wait to be in full voice.
Best wishes
Charlotte
Looks like you’ve got a pretty interesting blog here π
Thank you very much for following mine at http://geomsmusicblog.wordpress.com/
What did you think of my first rap, Trendz?
Thanks for visiting my blog. I don’t listen to much rap mainly Eminem who I’d love to do a classical crossover with. I respect what your doing good luck.
Best wishes
Charlotte
I listen to Eminem, some of his music is pretty cool π
Thank you very much π

I love your songs, Charlotte, You are amazingly talented! Great job! Best wishes for continued success. Hope your Christmas is fantastic.
Thanks Deanie, happy holidays to you too.

Charlotte
Very nice compilation.
Hope your getting better!
Thanks Phillip, I had a bit of a relapse yesterday an allergic reaction to all the meds the GP says, not used to taking anything or being ill, it’s very frustrating for me. I tried to go out to get some presents for family but I had to stop and go home early.
When I watch these videos back it reminds me that I have such a lot to learn but I had a fantastic time growing up doing stuff like this, I appreciate all my parents did to provide these opportunities for us.
I love reminiscing and we always love watching some of the films we’ve done of our children. Its so funny to see how they’ve changed.
Hope you have a healthy Christmas and a bright and successful New Year.
“chicken soup and plenty of rest ” at least, that’s what everyone over here says.
Take care Charlotte, and lest you forget, you have given so much of yourself.

Hi John, I haven’t got the energy for much at the moment but my appetites back now and my Dad was teaching me how to make beef stroganoff today.
