Hey
I am 18 years old and will be finishing my two year BTEC in Music at The BRIT School this coming May.
I started playing piano when I was very young, and still I play and compose by ear. I also sing and produce my own work, as well for other up and coming singer songwriters in Sweden, Norway, USA & Israel.
Having given up on formal piano lessons many years ago and in between studying music, I have singing lessons at The BRIT School. I have been trained to sing in various genres ranging from my own comfort zone to swing, ballads to opera. My voice is best described as alto-baritone. I feel privileged to be trained and taught by the very talented Caroline Herail.
My own work varies from slow to fast moving modern pop ballads, and I deliberately ensure that my work is reasonably easy to orchestrate. I have a burning passion to have some of my work used in film scores as well as for open stage, Singers and recorded performances.
Aside of my own work, I really enjoy singing cover sings of The Rat Pack, as well as the work of Elton John, Michael Buble, & Neil Sedaka. I really enjoy singing and performing Cole Porters’ work, which is truly brilliantly composed.
I find that to perform and sing the above genres properly requires musical discipline, timing and a reasonable vocal interpretation of the song to make it sound as it was intended.
I try to ensure that my compositions, (ballads or musical theatre), have as wide an appeal both age group wise and culturally. I believe music is a great leveller and can break through difficult barriers and boundaries, no matter how high.
In mid 2008, one of my musical theatre songs “Coming Home” was successfully performed in The Bloomsbury Theatre London, and at The Fairfield Halls Croydon, by the BRIT School Music strand, Musical Theatre, Dance & Theatre Strands.
The BRIT School put on a annual production called “The Silent Streets” at The Fairfield Halls, Croydon, and The Bloomsbury Theatre, Camden, North London. (Please see the Brit Digital Arts Video on my Profile).
The storyline was based around evacuated children, returning home after the second world war had ended.
I was asked to write the central theme song entitled “Coming Home” which was performed at both the above venues by a full cast to over 3000 people!
I should mention that my Dad, Philip, helps writing many of my lyrics, including Coming Home, Summer Feeling, Once Again and many other numbers. He is always around to offer guidance and constructive criticism of my new and recorded work before it gets performed or recorded.
In the summer of 2007, we entered the UK Song-Writing Contest, which is judged by music industry professionals. We entered ten separate items, five songs and five sets of lyrics. The end result was seven “Semi-Finalist” awards and three “Highly Commended” for all of our ten entries. Not a bad result considering the vast competition we were up against.
Under the Pop genre the following songs were entered: Summer Feeling, Out Of This World, Mosaic*, Once Again and Sandra's Song.
*The Lyrics for Mosaic were written by Lauren John. I composed all of the music and sang all of the songs. Mosaic reached the semi finals in both the Pop Genre, and in the Lyrics Only category for Lauren.
The following song Lyrics written by Philip, (my Dad) made it to the semi finals:
Once Again, and Summer Feeling.
The Lyrics for Out of this World and Sandra's Song both were rated as “Highly Commended”.
Dad and I continue to write together, though I do collaborate with other singer songwriters.
We haven’t since 2007 entered the UK Song writing Contest, as I am either tied up with my studies, and when I am not studying, I am recording (myself and others) or performing around London and the South East.
I hope you will enjoy all of my work sung on this site, and would appreciate your candid comments on any aspect of my work, either at this site or at www.robertjerome.co.uk
I just love your version of "Daydream Believer" Robert.
Hope you been well. Sorry I've been out of touch. I wish the Atlantic Ocean didn't separate us as far as our friendship.
