Tayla Alexander

[Jenny A]

Tayla is a very sweet girl with a sweet voice.
She has been called 'the next Hayley Westenra'.
She's even releasing her first full album sometime this November!


(Songbird was her EP album.)

Tayla Alexander immigrated to New Zealand from South Africa with her family when she was about six months old. From the age of about 4 she has been singing in front of audiences...
Tayla (11 years) achieved record success in the Junior Vocal competition -the 58th Annual Festival 2012 JUNIOR VOCAL (2012 North Shore Performing Arts Competition)

The young soprano won all four categories and was the overall winner for her age group. Competition judge Janice Webb noted her maturity, level of difficulty of the songs, her technique and of course her voice. Janice Webb noted that it is “very rare for one singer to win all of the categories – and I have only ever awarded one other competitor first place in all categories.”

Tayla has also placed in her age category in the New Zealand Opera Idol (2011) hosted by the Opera Factory, and sung on 6PM TVONE news after receiving a Best Buskers award.

Wonderful pure voice, huge talent!
Very nice Pie Jesu. Nice to hear how she is able to control her voice already in 11.
She has really great vocal range, nice color of the lower register in Danny Boy and amazing high notes. We know her voice will change, but what we can hear already now, it is big promise.

Thank you Jenny for introducing the young artist.

She is absolutely amazing! It's a God given talent that happens very rarely, she is truly blessed.
