Friday Swings on BBC Radio 2 and at the National Theatre!

Richard was recently thrilled to be singing on BBC Radio 2 ‘Friday Night is Music Night’ with the 65-piece BBC Concert Orchestra. Richard performed his very own hot, Cuban version of ‘My Way’, a sultry rendition of Moon River’, reinventing the classic ‘Dancin’ Easy’ famously used to advertise Martini and a Latin version of the Sting standard ‘Every Little Thing She Does is Magic’.

Richard also recently performed with his 7-piece big band at the Royal National Theatre showcase music event on the South Bank singing the classics and standards including ‘Come Fly With Me’ and ‘The Lady is a Tramp’.

Richard also sang with the BBC Big Band on Saturday 16th June to 17,000 bra and feather-boa clad women for the Moon Walk charity which raised £9 million on the night for Breast Cancer research.

And in May, Richard performed with the 35-piece London Concert Orchestra at London’s largest theatre and home to the English National Opera, The Coliseum in St. Martins Lane. Richard joined two of the most popular dancers from Strictly Come Dancing’, Anton de Beke and Erin Boag on their glamorous show ‘Cheek to Cheek’ as the official guest singer and the Coliseum dates marked the finale of a glittering show which has toured the UK to capacity crowds with guest artistes Chris Marques and Jaclyn Spencer, 3-times Salsa World Champions!
