Hi I'm Bernie and I live in Nova Scotia on the east coast of Canada.My first introduction to CC was through the original 3 tenors Pavarotti,Domingo,and Cerreras,whether one agrees that they can be considered CC or not.Through the years I would briefly be made aware of others such as Charlotte Church,Andreas Bocelli,and Sarah Brightman to name a few.Then in 2010 along came Jackie Evancho with her big little voice and my curiousity was piqued when she spoke of a musical genre called Classical Crossover.Through some googling I found that most paths lead back to Nicola's CCUK.It was here that I discovered that I had a favourite musical genre that I didn't even know existed.Of course living in North America this is not uncommon.Not so long after this I discovered that we over this side of the pond needed some facebook sites to both learn about and enjoy our passion.I won't go into all that except to say Nicola was a great help in helping me set up these endeavours and I will always appreciate it.

Hello Bernie, welcome to the CC forum. I suspect you will already know many of the names here. Many of us have discovered a wealth of talent through Nicola's website. Thank you for all that you do to promote the genre on facebook and I look forward to hearing more from you here.

Bernie, You have found the site with the most accurate information and over 100 artists. Who could ask for more? And Nicola keeps adding a few more even though she really has no time. By all means, look at the artist's profiles and listen to their videos. It's a whole new world of music.

Bernie! I'm so glad you're here! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 Super welcome! If you guys aren't part of Bernies groups yet, do! He is tireless and is a million times better at keeping things to do date than I am! Actually Bernie, I had a dream not just a few hours ago where I made you co-editor of the website! Not actually feasible but I remember thinking 'well that's a huge weight off my shoulders! He'll update it all the time!' XD XD XD XD XD XD Bernie's prolific facebook page: www.facebook.com/ClassicalCrossoverInternationalHe does an amazing job, guys!
