Background: Young Welsh mezzo soprano Katherine Jenkins is already making a name for herself in advance of the release of her debut album 'Premiere'. 'Premiere' is a collection of songs which reflect her musical influences, Welsh folk songs and some new arrangements of classic tracks.

Brought up in Neath, South Wales, by the time Katherine was seven her interest in pop music had been superseded by classical music. She started taking piano lessons and joined her local church choir. Over the next ten years she represented Wales on three occasions in the Choirgirl of the Year Competition, winning the BBC Radio 2 Welsh Choirgirl of the Year Competition twice and the BET Welsh Choirgirl of the Year.

Between 1990 and 1996, Katherine was a loyal member of The Royal School of Church Music Cathedral Singers where she achieved her St Cecilia Award - the highest award, and was also a member of the National Youth Choir of Wales for three years. She was only 17 when she won a scholarship to London's Royal Academy of Music where she graduated with honours.
