Having read music at Manchester University, Alexander now sings regularly with leading choirs including Tenebrae and The Sixteen, and he sang in the choir at Westminster Abbey for the King’s coronation.  He has performed lead roles in Britten’s Albert Herring and The Rape of Lucretia; his recent oratorio projects include Bach’s St. John Passion, Handel’s Messiah, and Haydn’s Creation. He is co-founder of Consort Encore, which delivers live classical music for events and occasions. Alexander is delighted to perform in Budleigh, having spent many happy months here with his fiancée during lockdowns!

He is joined by JP Ekins (piano) and Charlotte Marino (clarinet).
