“Ash Howard is spectacular as Monostatos, the slave unrequitedly in love with Pamina. He stands out with excellent stage presence and a powerful mezzo voice.“ - Zoë Pinnell, A Young(ish) Perspective (2025)

Ash Howard is a multi-skilled mezzo soprano “with excellent stage presence and a powerful mezzo voice” (A Young(ish) Perspective, Zoë Pinnell), performing across opera, competitions and choral settings both on the stage and behind the scenes as a stage manager. Based in London, he graduated his Masters at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music in 2024 as the recipient of the Kathleen Roberts Vocal Scholarship.

He performed as a Young Artist at Waterperry Opera Festival 2024, in both a gala show and chorus Barber of Seville. He is a regular performer with St Paul’s Opera, where he began performing octave-swapped roles with Dr Blind Die Fledermaus, continuing the trend with Monostatos Die Zauberflöte (Opera Greenwich) and Jailor/Chorus Tosca (Oxford Opera). Other roles include Second Spirit Die Zauberflӧte (Cardiff Cotswold Opera), and Smeton Try me, Good King (Trinity Laban). He has played multiple varied roles in Trinity Laban’s opera scenes such as Nicklausse (Les Contes d’Hoffmann), Sesto (La Clemenza di Tito), Mutter (Hänsel und Gretel) and Tancredi (Tancredi).

He has participated in several masterclasses; with Thomas Quasthoff (Wigmore Hall), David Butt Philip (St Paul’s Opera) and Roderick Williams (Hurn Court Opera). His recital performances have also seen him in the final of the Charles Wood Song Competition 2025, the semi-final of the Eastbourne International Singing Competition 2025, win Trinity Laban’s Soloist’s Competition and place second in the Hearn Foundation Vocal Competition.

Within stage management he has worked with Trinity Laban, The Opera Makers, Green Opera and Hampstead Garden Opera, and trained on British Youth Opera’s Serena Fenwick Programme for Stage Managers.
