Singing and Music
Singing Voice:
Bass, Baritone, Tenor, Counter-Tenor.
(3 useable octaves in the region of C2 - C5).
"Christopher Harvey's superb singing as Amiens" - Oliver Williams, Leamington Spa Courier. As You Like It.
I would class myself as an actor who can sing. I have to be honest and say that, apart from Les Mis and Rent, I know very little about West End Musicals, and am, therefore, very nervous about being considered for that genre. Also, although I can move in time to music, I am definitely not a dancer.
Drums and Percussion:
I have been playing the drum-kit since I was 13 years old and play to a high standard, with considerable experience of playing live and in the studio.
My kit is a 5-piece, white, Tama Granstar Custom and I would describe my style as "rock with bags of groove". A few years ago I was involved with a signed band in Worcester. Our 1st single reached no. 1 in Greece and no. 11 in Switzerland. Shortly afterwards, just when EMI Europe were offering a sizeable contract, the band split up due to artistic and contractual differences.
I also play hand drums and have my own Djembe.
Acoustic Guitar:
I would describe my guitar skills as very "Basic", having proven, during rehearsals for As You Like It, that playing, singing and walking, all at the same time, was nigh-on impossible!
