Emerging British baritone Johannes Moore is building a varied career across recital opera, oratorio, and opera stages.

Following his formative musical experiences as a chorister at Hereford Cathedral Johannes trained at the Royal Academy of Music Opera Studio. He refined his technique at the Georg Solti Accademia under notable mentors including Jonathan Papp, Leo Nucci, and Richard Bonynge.

Johannes made his Opera North début as Ned Keene in Peter Grimes in the 2025-26 season. For Glyndebourne he has covered Prosdocimo (Il Turco in Italia) and Marcello (La bohème).

His roles at the RAM included Sid (Albert Herring), Slook (La Cambiale di Matrimonio) and Theseus (A Midsummer Night’s Dream).

Whilst at the RAM he was a Kohn Foundation scholar which gave him the opportunity to participate in the Bach Cantata series under  such luminaries as Sir John Butt, Masaaki Suzuki, and Philippe Herreweghe. As an oratorio soloist, Johannes has performed extensively across the UK with a broad repertoire encompassing Bach St John Passion, B Minor Mass, Handel’s Messiah at the Royal Albert Hall, Mozart’s Requiem at Cadogan Hall, and other repertoire at Lincoln Cathedral, Bath Abbey, Hereford Cathedral, St Giles Edinburgh, and Barnes Festival.

His recital accomplishments include appearances at Wigmore Hall, Leeds Lieder, St John Smith Square, Trinity College Cambridge, Ludlow Song Festival, and international engagements in China.
