Anton van der Mere is a classical crossover tenor, songwriter and recording artist, based in London, UK.

With his experience as an actor and his continual classical music training, the performing arts have always been the defining constituent of his life.   

Determined to have a strong academic foundation in addition to his musical inclination, he graduated from the University of Port Elizabeth (NNMU) with a LLB law degree in 2000. He simultaneously furthered his studies in acting and dance at the Stageworld Performing Arts School, and classical singing training with Erna Mayer in Port Elizabeth. During his stay in Cape Town later on, he trained with André Howard at the University of Stellenbosch. Adamant to stay vocally fit and nurture his ability, he furthermore advanced his musical studies in the UK, undertaking master classes in vocal technique with Daniele Guerra at the Royal College of Music in London in 2014.

As a performer, Anton had the fortunate opportunity to travel around the world - initially performing as show cast and then later as headline act on the prestigious Carnival UK ships. In 2006 and 2007 he returned to South Africa to sing and act in several professional theatre productions and television adverts. He performed for an audience of 15 000 as a guest artist for Angus Buchan from Faith like Potatoes fame. In 2009 and 2010 he moved to New York, doing concerts and shows in the Big Apple with great audience response to his natural tenor voice. 

With his unremitting love for music, and his natural ability in which he interprets compositions, Anton has been called the “next Mario Lanza” by Gerhard Kenny, singer-songwriter for Barry Manilow.
