After sifting through the hundreds of entries we received, we’ve finally chosen the winner of our Billboard Competition (as announced by Drew in the first TTT Podcast). The winner is: Stefani Sadler from San Diego, USA.
Stef took one of the TTT Koalas on an amazing adventure to Sea World, the highlight of which was having the Koala’s portrait created by a caricaturist.
Wonderful stuff!
Thank you to everyone who entered.
Here’s a review of Here’s to the Heroes published today:
It’s power ballads at full throttle as The Ten Tenors get stuck into the songbook of Oscar-winning composer John Barry… It makes for an emotional, highly charged sound, and the voices of the 10 fine singers and the brilliant production values live up to the drama of the material… it is another impressive work from this act. - Sydney Star Observer

Ten Tenors in fine voice

At his company’s product launch in Brisbane this afternoon, Warner Music Australia CEO Ed St John told a story about having lunch recently with broadcaster Alan Jones and members of the Ten Tenors. St John said he made the mistake of remarking how good it was to see some fine operatic singers come from Queensland of all places. “Alan pulled me up and said, ‘Most of Australia’s best opera singers come from Queensland’.” Quite right, too…

Melbourne Blogger, Harris Smart writes:
THE LAST TENOR: We used to have individual tenors. Then we had Three Tenors. Now we have Ten Tenors. Soon we will have a Hundred Tenors, then a Thousand, then a Million and so on. Soon there will be only one unemployed tenor left in the world. The Last Tenor. - HARRIS SMART
So, what do you think “The Last Tenor” might be like?
