Tona de Brett

Many of our regular customers already know that Tim’s Mum is Tona de Brett, legendary singing teacher to the stars (check this out if you don’t believe me) In fact I would be surprised if there was anyone in Wood Green, Hornsey or Muswell Hill who didn’t know. It is said that in order to gain access to Crouch End you must know that Tona briefly taught Annie Lennox.

Tona

Well, Tona – with the help of author & journalist Chris Charles – is writing her memoirs, and she could do with a little assistance.

We're looking for anyone who was taught by Tona, and we have set up an email address solely to collect their memories/stories of Tona. It is  tonadebrettbook@hotmail.com


Tona has lived and worked in Muswell Hill for over 50 years and, in that time, has taught hundreds (possibly thousands) of people. We want to hear from as many as possible. From the people she taught piano to as children to the megastars who came to top up their singing skills.
If you've ever had the pleasure of being taught by Tona, or can can share this with people who might be able to help, we'd really appreciate it.
