Louise Jones - contralto
An accomplished artist with a rich contralto voice, Louise has sung extensively in the United Kingdom and abroad and is equally at home in oratorio and lieder and song. She has the capacity to captivate audiences and to move people to tears with her beautiful singing, particularly in sacred oratorios such as Bach’s St Matthew Passion, Handel’s Messiah and Mendelssohn’s Elijah.
