ALL THE SINGING LADIES
BARBARA COLE WALTON
// the high stuff
Barbara comes from Vancouver Island, Canada, and has specialised in Disney (with a focus on The Little Mermaid) since the tender age of 4. She moved to Glasgow in 2011 to attend the RCS and now works as a freelance opera singer with Scottish Opera and in the British southern climes, while moonlighting as the one who does the high notes for The All Sorts.
GRACE WAIN
// mostly melody
Grace graduated from RWCMD with an MA in Opera Performance in 2014, after which she moved to Scotland. She is a regular part of the Scottish Opera Chorus and also dabbles as a fitter of ladies' lingerie. Since forming The All Sorts, Grace has found great fulfilment in (sometimes) being allowed to sing the tune.
SARAH SHORTER
// lady tenor
Sarah began singing by accident and continued out of habit. She trained in opera at the RAM in London, and moved to Glasgow for love. She’ll tell you about it sometime. Since then, you might have noticed her performing with Scottish Opera. She founded The All Sorts so that she could fulfil her lifetime ambition of singing tenor professionally.
JANE MONARI
// buttery biscuit bass
Jane hails from the city of Philadelphia, USA. She completed her BMus at Juilliard and her MA at the RAM, London, before moving to Scotland to study opera at the RCS. She has since worked in the Scottish Opera chorus, mostly singing, but sometimes cracking the whip as dance captain. She loves singing the accompanimental bass part as she rarely has to remember any words.
