About Sian Davies

Welsh Classical singer based in Manchester
Sian Davies's profile picture
Singer
Manchester
Public liability insurance of £10 million

I am a classical singer with experience in opera, song, contemporary classical and jazz. I'm also an experienced chorister and conduct a church choir. You can read some more about me in my biography below: Siân Davies is a Welsh mezzo-soprano studying for her Master of Music at the Royal Northern College of Music under the tutelage of Antonia Sotgiu. She is generously supported by the Alice Orrell and A&N Kendall Award, The Annie Ridyard Scholarship and the Riga Heesom Award. Siân's recent highlights include performances with Sir Stephen Hough, David Owen Norris and a recital at the Bridgewater Hall. As a child Siân sang in music service ensembles, the National Youth Choir of Great Britain, the National Youth Choir of Wales and her church choir. Her love of both the choral tradition and church music has stayed with her: She has been a choral scholar at Holy Innocents Church since 2018 and has been their conductor since September 2022. Siân’s experience as a support worker for adults with disabilities has strengthened her belief in the power of music to transform lives and her passion for music in the community, organising workshops for nursing home residents. Siân also enjoys teaching singing, freelancing as a soloist and choral singer and performing with the RNCM Chamber Choir and RNCM Songsters.

This is a short review of my experience of Sians entertainment value. She sang at my Black tie Charity Dinner dance last year in front of an audience of 100 guests. Her choice of songs was exceptional and in line with the occasion, she engaged well with the audience with her delightful and mature voice. Sian is a very pleasant and approachable person with an easy-going personality. I have no hesitation in recommending Sian as a singer for any occasion. Margot Mather

Customer questions

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

I always try my best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly just let me know.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

No sorry, I am a classical singer.

How much time do you need to set up?

Not long at all - it's just me and my voice!

Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?

The songlist is just a guide of the type of repertoire I can sing. You're welcome to choose any song from that but I'm also happy to learn new music.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

I am a classical singer so do not require amplification.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

The songlist is just a guide of the type of repertoire I can sing. You're welcome to choose any song from that but I'm also happy to learn new music.
