Jerome Knox (baritone) was a graduate of the Alexander Gibson Opera School at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, where he was the inaugural Gleneagles scholar. He previously trained at the Royal College of Music and at Edinburgh University. In 2020, he won the prestigious London Handel Festival Competition and is now much in demand in both concert and operatic repertoire.
His many recent stage appearances include Clodomiro in Handel’s Lotario for his Swiss debut in Payerne and, in the UK, Nick Shadow The Rake’s Progress with English Touring Opera. 2024 also saw a return to Scottish Opera for their spring Opera Highlights tour, and Jerome has also recently sung Marcello La bohème, Don Prudenzio Il viaggio a Reims, Pallante Agrippina, Astolfo Lucrezia Borgia and Afron The Golden Cockerel (all for English Touring Opera), as well as Aeneas Dido & Aeneas, Polyphemus Acis & Galatea and Count Almaviva Le nozze di Figaro (all for Waterperry Opera).
Equally at home on the concert platform, recent highlights include appearances at Wigmore Hall with the London Handel Players, including programmes of Bach cantatas and Magnificat (with interpolations), his debut with the Flemish Radio Choir as soloist in Handel’s Messiah and Christus and arias in the Bach St John Passion for the London Handel Festival; in recital, he has performed at the Händel-Festspiele in Halle, the London Handel Festival and the Ludlow English Song Weekend, as well as giving a joint recital with baritone Roderick Williams at Music at Paxton, supported by the prestigious Momentum scheme.
His other operatic roles include Dandini (La Cenerentola), Faust in Prokofiev’s The Fiery Angel, the title role in Don Giovanni, Oreste Iphigénie en Tauride, Melisso (Alcina), Schaunard (La bohème), Death (Der Kaiser von Atlantis), Dr Falke (Die Fledermaus), the title role in Eugene Onegin and Pallante (Agrippina).
