London (February 14) — Opera music is not a style usually associated with teenagers, but young musician Charlie Cunningham is hoping to change that.
Mr. Cunningham, who is 18 years old, attended the Mozart School of Music in London for 7 years. After graduating with top honors, his abilities were quickly recognized by Alfred Butler, and, after an impressive audition, he soon signed a contract with Butler’s record label, Stanley Music. He went on to sing in a number of musicals in London’s West End and made his debut in The Phantom of the Opera.
Having conquered the West End, Mr. Cunningham set about recording his first studio album, entided Sounds of England. This album was well received by fans of opera music and entered the English musical charts at number 14. The album greatly increased his popularity, and his Web site attracted 100, 000 visitors the week after as a result.
Now, Mr. Cunningham is set to release his second album, called Reflections, on February 21. He claims that the new album mixes old and new styles and is hopeful of further success. To reserve a copy in advance, fans can visit his agency’s official Web site. Customers placing orders before February 18 will receive a 10% discount and an autographed poster.
