Michael Jones

Hailed as “superb,” (Gramaphone), Los Angeles-based tenor Michael Jones is an international soloist, collaborator, and recording artist in high demand. Jones’ vocal repertoire spans from the Baroque to contemporary genre-bending commissions. He has performed with an array of ensembles as a soloist and ensemble member, where he has “blended gorgeously” (South Florida Classical Review).



In his 2025/2026 season, Jones’ notable engagements include his solo debut with Apollo’s Fire, Con Gioia Bach, Cantata Collective and appearances with Bach Collegium San Diego, Tesserae Baroque, The Crossing, Santa Fe Desert Chorale, Seraphic Fire, Alium Spiritum, Spire Chamber Ensemble and internationally, with Los Angeles Master Chorale.



Recent highlights include Jones as the tenor soloist with Philharmonia Baroque for performances of Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland, BWV 62 and Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben, BWV 147a. He has also appeared as a soloist with the Philadelphia Orchestra, Long Beach Symphony, Piffaro, Tesserae Baroque and Choral Arts Philadelphia.



Jones appears on over thirty acclaimed commercial recordings, including three GRAMMY-award-winning albums for Best Choral Performance with The Crossing (2018, 2022, and 2025) and 10 GRAMMY nominated albums (eight with The Crossing and two with Conspirare). Additional recording credits include works with Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra, Resonance Collective, Vocal Arts Ensemble Cincinnati, and The Thirteen. In addition, Jones has recorded on Delos, Parma, Albany, World Library Publications, and GIA and has performed on five Downbeat Award-winning recordings.



A SAG-AFTRA vocalist, Jones has also contributed to major feature films such as “How To Train Your Dragon,” and was featured in Macy’s Singing Tree for the Macy’s Day Parade (2022 and 2023), further showcasing his artistic range across classical and commercial stages.
