Thomas Humphreys

Thomas Humphreys is fast establishing himself as one of the most in demand baritones of his generation. He made his operatic debut for Glyndebourne Festival Opera in Verdi’s La Traviata. His roles include Don Giovanni (Don Giovanni), Il Conte Almaviva (Le nozze di Figaro), Guglielmo (Cosi fan tutte), Escamillo (Carmen), Marcello (La boheme), Tomsky (Pique Dame), Jake Wallace (La fanciulla del West) among others for many of the major opera companies across the UK. He was recently critically acclaimed for his role as Il Conte Almaviva in Dorset Festival Opera’s production of Le nozze di Figaro, with Opera Magazine stating ‘Thomas Humphreys’ finely-sung alpha-male Count mixed Marlon Brando-like virility with baffled authority’. 

Thomas recently made his debut at the Philharmonie de Paris and the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation in Lisbon, performing concerts of Schubert Lieder with the worldwide renowned pianist Maria João Pires, for which he was universally acclaimed. Other recital work has taken him across the UK and to Italy, Russia and Bulgaria.

Thomas is equally in high demand on the concert platform, regularly performing with the premiere choirs and orchestras in the UK, notably the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, the London Mozart Players, City of London Choir, City of Birmingham Choir, Oxford Bach Choir, Arcangelo and the Choir of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford.
