Singer

A Singer performs in front of an audience or makes musical recordings for entertainment. You might sing as part of a larger group like a band or a choir or you might sing on your own as a solo performer. Singers often write their own music but also sing compositions created by other artists. You might specialise in a particular type of singing such as opera or contemporary music or you might perform a range of different genres.

Singers should be comfortable appearing in front of an audience and need to have good stage presence. You’ll need to show strong talent and respond well to feedback from producers or directors. Being a professional Singer means spending a lot of time rehearsing your performance and refining your skills. Depending on your role, you might have to work irregular hours including weekends and public holidays.
