Joanne sang two hymns accompanied by a string quartet (who she had never met!) and another piece during signing of the register with a backing track, both sounding incredible. Having Joanne sing at our wedding really made our ceremony extra special and we are so pleased that Joanne was available.

Just wow.. Joanne's voice was one of the things I was most excited about for our wedding, and she did not disappoint. In fact, Joanne had many of my guests in tears of emotion once she started singing.. Simply breathtaking!

Aside from being exceptionally talented, Joanne is very lovely. From the point of booking to the day of the wedding, she was so helpful and friendly, and really put me at ease.

I couldn't imagine the ceremony being anywhere near as magical without The London Soprano, and I'd highly recommend her. I only wish I had another big event so that I could hire her and listen to that incredible voice again live!

Joanne was a wonderful singer at the funeral service of my brother on 21 March, She sang the Ave Maria most beautifully and her voice filled the whole church to the awe of the congregation. She was very accommodating and sang other hymns as well. A warm friendly person with much compassion.

We were thrilled to secure Joanne for my Dad’s 70th. She was so friendly yet highly professional. I know from the videos that I had chosen someone really talented but my goodness, when you here her singing live it’s breath taking. Such a talent. So humble. Utterly brilliant. Cannot recommend her enough and my Dad was so happy.

Joanne was absolutely amazing and made my fathers ' celebration of life ' just perfect adding that extra special touch. The whole family told me how Joannes singing just blew them away. She was so professional, yet so down to earth even helping during my speech by giving me some water as I got a very dry mouth. Lovely lady and highly recommended. I have been asked by many for her details . Just perfection and gave my father the send off he so rightly deserved. Many thanks ? xx

My husband and I were really excited about having Joanne to sing at our wedding service and reception but nothing prepared us for how truly sensational she was to see live. Every time I think back to our day and Joanne singing I feel the Goosebumps start all over again. Joanne made our day truly magical and I feel so grateful for how special she made it for us. I will most definitely be asking Joanne to perform for us again sometime in the future. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts Joanne! x

Joanne sang at my private event and all the guests said how beautifully she sang and how it made the evening very special with everyone shouting for an encore at the end of her performance! A real quality of music and Joanne has star quality for sure! I would definitely recommend her.

What a beautiful wedding we had, made even more so by our choice of soloist. Joanne was discreet in person and respectful of catholic traditions whilst astounding our guests with her unique vocals. Her voice carried through the church and touched our souls.
Excellent to deal with both before and during the service. Worked well with organist. Lots of compliments were given to her and she made Luke and Shelley’s day even better. Thank-you!

Joanne sang at my wedding and was just wonderful. She has a beautiful voice and we felt so lucky to have her come and sing during our service. So many of our guests commented on just how beautiful her singing was. We couldn't recommend Joanne highly enough. She was also very professional, responsive and kind and a pleasure to deal with.

We hired Joanne for our wedding ceremony. She helped us choose our songs, provided the backing tracks and music system so we didn't have to worry about a thing on the day. She sang the songs so beautifully, all of our guests commented on how wonderful she was. We couldn't recommend her enough. Thank you Joanne for making our ceremony so special.

Dr Karen Evangelista (Three counties radio listener.) 2 Feb 2018

I was listening to the Roberto Perrone show on the radio this evening, February 2ND, where three people and himself were talking about entertainment. I admit I was only semi-listening as my mind was on writing yet another letter about our government, then all of a sudden the speaking stopped and the beautiful voice of Maria Callas came on, with her mesmeric song, and I stopped writing, I could not carry on, I had to listen, listening intently where every word is pronounced so correctly, each level of tone so perfect, it was so gorgeous, again I was blown away, wishing I could sound like her, as I always have done, and I even said out loud “no one could be better than Maria Callas”. But how wrong could I can be, because this wasn’t Maria - it was JOANNE!
I was so astounded, I called the radio station producer Uzman to doublecheck and take her name for sure, I’m also a little annoyed that I’m so jealous of somebody who can sing phenomenal opera like Maria Callas and who is still alive

Joanne was an amazing beautiful singer she sang at my Mother in laws funeral and even did a reading. She lead us into the hymns which was lovely. A very sad occasion made very special by Joanne's beautiful singing. Ave Maria was what my Mother in law always loved and Joanne did us proud on that day. A Massive Thank you from all of Ida'so family. We highly recommend Joanne to anyone wanting an amazing sIngersoll. Thank you again.

We have just buried my mother in law.
Joanne sang Ave Maria and Panis Angelicus, as well as helping us with our woeful hymn singing.
Such a beautiful voice, a real gift.
She provided dignity and beauty to the service.
I am greatly indebted to her.

Richard Smith (Golf Club Captains Day Dinner) 9 Jun 2016
10/10

I was looking for something special and different for the golf club when I discovered Joanne on the internet and that is what I got and more. Joanne's professionalism and voice quality were exceptional and had the full attention of the audience of some 140 members and guests who went out of their way to thank me for booking her. The content of the music set and the timing was left to Joanne after I had outlined what the night was all about and it turned out perfectly. From my initial contact with Joanne everything went without a hitch and I anticipate that we will be inviting her to make the long journey to enthrall us again.

Joanne's beautiful voice complimented our wedding so wonderfully. We were so thrilled, as were the whole wedding party to have someone as talented and lovely as Joanne to sing for us on the best and happiest day of our lives.

From 'O Mio Babbino Caro' through to 'I could have Danced all Night' Joanne's varied repertoire was delightful. Her superb singing and bubbly personality added a very special touch to the evening.
Thank you Joanne for making Gerry's birthday a most memorable occasion. (I don't remember him ever giving 10/10 before!)

Joanne 's recital, though short because of our time constraints was very well received and the common thought was it was the highlight of the evening.
More was definitely needed but we ran out of time .Unfortunate, if I had been more aware we would have had Joanne's talents on display a lot earlier in the evening

I first met Joanne while singing at Covent Garden. Her range and repertoire were immediately interesting! I was then able to book Joanne to entertain my colleagues at our 75th Anniversary celebrations in Mayfair. Her singing was enthralling and her lively personality fully captivated the essembled guests. As well as giving a superb mixture of songs and arias, Joanne was able to offer a lightness to the celebrations, which was heightened during the festive evening dining as she entered into the spirit of the occasion. We all went home having experienced an excellent meal culminating with her rich, fine singing.

Joanna sang at our wedding blessing and all I can say is 'stunning'. Her singing really did add a special touch to our wonderful day and I could not recommend her highly enough. The choice of the arias worked well deeply touching many people opera goers and non-alike.

We spent a lot of time picking someone for our wedding anniversary and would just like say Joanne made our day so special people are still telling us how much they enjoyed the day. Joanne guided us through our song selection which was very helpful. Thanks again Danny and June

The real star of the show, Joanne McGahon, put a human face on proceedings, performing a beautiful rendition of Puccini's O Mio Babbino Caro before returning later for the traditional sing along.
