final question i opened with this fact that you are a classical singer you performed on stage with some greats what does singing give you?

singing in a choir is this wonderful sense of coming together with so many people to make something the whole is great in the summer months particularly when it comes to playing in an orchestra in a large concert world classical music is much more exciting than people think it is and it's certainly very exciting when you're in the choir right behind the timpones and the brass watching the conductor make these hundreds of people in front of him act as one so that's very exciting singing solo which i don't do that much but again it's personal it's fun there's this sense of connecting to people there is a natural human urge if you go to a football ground you'll see it easy enough to burst into song you can also argue as a natural human urge to dance i'm terrible dancer i'm a pretty good singer this sense of wanting to release getting the heart of what's going on inside your app there and sharing it is a deep human emotion and one that i enjoy greatly so i suppose the other thing i'm not good at sports never have been i happen to have a pretty good voice it feels good to do something that's different from the rest of what i do that's not intellectual but that allows real expression anyone out there wants to try singing you may or may not be lucky enough to have a good enough voice to get as far as i did so it's fun and i think everybody needs something like that in their lives
