Isabel sings in the choir at York Minster – considered the finest medieval cathedral in northern Europe by many experts.

She has been a full chorister since 2006, and is preparing to take her Grade 7 exams in both singing and piano this autumn.

Meanwhile, she’s learning guitar and dipping a toe in the water of singer-songwriting in what little remains of her spare time.

Her recording deal with an arm of the mighty Decca organisation comes after she won a nationwide search to find Britain’s most musically-talented choirgirl. She was the only one competing from the York choir.

She experienced her first taste of working in a top-flight professional recording studio and found herself rubbing shoulders with a variety of famous artists.

Recording her debut Decca album took six days.
