Harry Jacques originally studied music at Bristol University, later teaching at Oakham School as Organist and Teacher of Music. Chorally, he has sung with numerous cathedral choirs, as a VOCES8 Scholar, and with ensembles including Gabrieli Consort, Polyphony and London Choral Sinfonia. His oratorio work spans Bach, Handel, Haydn and Stainer, supported in part by the Josephine Baker Trust.

In 2022, he began studying at Guildhall School of Music and Drama with Adrian Thompson and John Evans, supported by the D’Oyly Carte Charitable Trust, the Edith Vogel Bursary and The Worshipful Company of Grocers. Opera experiences have included Waterperry Opera Festival and understudying Nemorino with Wild Arts. In 2024, he joined Glyndebourne Chorus for productions including Die Zauberflöte, Carmen, The Merry Widow and Tristan und Isolde, also performing at the BBC Proms.

Now on Guildhall’s opera course, recent roles in scenes have included Leicester (Maria Stuarda), Mayor Upfold (Albert Herring), Roméo (Roméo et Juliette), Le Chevalier (Dialogues des Carmélites) and Essex (Gloriana). In Autumn 2025 he will sing Heinrich in Smyth’s Der Wald and Bruto in Respighi’s Lucrezia.
