Edward Ross
Edward Ross is an acclaimed English tenor specialising in Baroque and Early Music. Known for his bright, natural tone and versatile musicality, he is in demand as a soloist across Europe.
In the 2023/24 season, Ross performed the complete masses of Josquin with the Tallis Scholars at the Utrecht Early Music Festival and toured the United States with the Monteverdi Choir and Dinis Sousa, singing Bach’s Mass in B minor. He also joined the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment under Masaaki Suzuki for a European tour of Bach’s Weihnachtsoratorium. Other notable engagements included solo performances of Haydn’s Die Jahreszeiten and Händel’s Messiah with the Nieuwe Philharmonie Utrecht.
This December, alongside his role as a soloist in the Monteverdi Choir’s Charpentier tour, Ross will perform twice as the Evangelist in Bach’s Weihnachtsoratorium at the Alfredo Kraus Auditorium in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. At Easter, he returns to Bachkoor Holland to sing the Evangelist role in Bach’s Matthäus-Passion in Lochem and Delft.
Originally from London, Ross began his musical journey as head chorister of the London Oratory School Schola under Mike McCarthy, gaining international recognition as a treble. He studied horn with Simon de Souza at the Junior Royal Academy of Music and completed his Master’s at the Royal Academy of Music, where he trained with the distinguished Scottish tenor Neil Mackie.
