TV & Radio

ITV'S Link devoted a whole programme to Clare's career and family life, while she was working for the Royal Opera House's outreach programme. She has been featured, several times, singing and being interviewed on BBC Two's From the Edge, Over the Edge and One in Four. Elsewhere, she has appeared on Channel Four's Same Difference and Big Breakfast; on ITV News and Harlech Television's Son of Wales. Several of Clare's original lyrics were featured on Words and Pictures, for BBC Schools' broadcasts.

Particularly enjoying the medium of radio, Clare has been a guest on the following national programmes: BBC Radio Four's Woman's Hour, Pick of the Week, Midweek, Today, Home Truths, In Touch, Kaleidoscope and Test Match Special; Radio Three's The Works, Sketches of Musical Life and Music Matters; Radio Five's Ruskoe and AM Alternatives; Five Live's Sport on Five and Radio Two's The Jamesons; on Austrian Radio, Saxony Radio, Radio Scotland and Classic FM. The diversity of her musical career was ably demonstrated by Clare's two appearances on Pick of the Week: in the first, she was heard singing "Musetta's Waltz Song" and leading a "La Boheme" workshop for the Royal Opera House, and she made a second appearance, by popular demand, when her performance on the Today programme, of her comedy cabaret song "The Waltz of Nasser Hussain was repeated.

Clare first acquired the nickname of the "User Friendly Soprano" in the course of twenty year's worth of regular appearances on BBC Radio Kent's Pat Marsh Show. For the same programme, Clare provided several cod-operatic jingles. As a student, she appeared regularly on BBC Radio Newcastle's Religious Broadcasts. Numerous other local radio appearances have included: broadcasts on BBC Hereford and Worcester, BBC Three Counties and on LBC.
