Yvonne Ellis - Accompanist

Our 'first choice' (and only choice) accompanist since 2006 has been Yvonne who started out life with Fourum as Yvonne Hamilton-Jeffrey. However, in October, 2008 she changed her surname to Ellis. It's no coincidence it's the same name as our Tenor, Keith, for it was then that she and Keith married.

Yvonne first tucked a violin under her chin when she was four years old and first broadcast when she was eight. In her teens she was a member of the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain and appeared as a soloist on television and at the London Palladium. Other instruments she has mastered are viola, 'cello, trombone, clarinet, piano, organ, recorders and Celtic Harp.

Currently she is teaching music in a local primary school, adjudicating at competitive festivals and examining for the Trinity College of Music.
