Jacob Perry

Jacob Perry is lauded for his stylish interpretations of early music. He can be heard as a featured soloist with Apollo's Fire, Bach Collegium San Diego, Philharmonia Baroque, Tafelmusik Baroque Orchestra, Tempesta di Mare, Washington Bach Consort, and the Washington National Cathedral. In 2024, he was nominated for a GRAMMY award as a soloist on a recording of Handel’s “Israel in Egypt” with Apollo’s Fire. Deeply immersed in vocal chamber music, Jacob engages with ensembles such as Ampersand, Blue Heron, The Leonids, New Consort, and Res Facta. Career highlights include his recent solo debut in Handel’s Israel in Egypt with the New York Philharmonic, headlining the inaugural festival of Western Early Music at the Beijing Central Conservatory of Music with Les Canards Chantants, and “English Orpheus”—a tour de force exploration of love songs and poems from the Elizabethan, Restoration, and early 18th-century periods with Tempesta di Mare.
