Biography

Chloë Latchmore is a British mezzo-soprano hailing from Yorkshire. A graduate of the prestigious Guildhall School of Music and Drama, Chloë trained on the international opera course, where she graduated with distinction in 2018. During her studies, she was generously sponsored by the Fishmongers Company and the Guildhall School Trust, and received notable scholarships from the Countess of Munster Musical Trust, Help Musicians UK, the Kathleen Trust, and the Mario Lanza Educational Foundation. She is also the recipient of the Eunice Pettigrew Prize for singing.

 

Chloe has worked regularly with Glyndebourne Festival Opera, both as a member of the chorus and performing various roles and covers for them, including Soeur Mathilde in Barrie Kosky's critically acclaimed production of Dialogues des Carmelites (which sadly fell victim to the Covid-19 pandemic). 

 

Most recently, Chloe has collaborated with the acclaimed contemporary opera company The Opera Story, where she developed the role of Fran in an exciting new adaptation of Pandora's Box.  She was a soloist in their award winning series Episodes, which won the 2020 Royal Philharmonic Society Inspiration Award and she also covered the title role of Beauty in Beauty and the Seven Beasts.  

Other operatic highlights include, Carmen for Pop-up Opera's production of La tragedie de Carmen and Mere Marie for the Guildhall School's production of Poulenc's Dialogues des Carmélites, both of which she received critical acclaim for. Previous roles here also include Mother in GSMD's production of Menotti's The Consul and Nella in a production of Gianni Schicchi with the LSSO in the Barbican Hall.  While studying at the Royal Northern College of Music she also performed the role of Hippolyta in Britten's Midsummer Night's Dream. 
 

Chloë is deeply passionate about song repertoire and has performed at some of London’s most prestigious venues, including the Barbican Hall and the Wigmore Hall. Her performances have featured a recital of Sibelius songs as part of the pre-LSO concert series, as well as the world premiere of Jack Sheen's I Klaleidoscope. Chloë has also performed Berio's Folksongs, conducted by Elim Chan, at another pre-LSO concert, and was invited to give a solo recital at the Northern Aldborough Festival.


Chloë has appeared as a soloist for several choral and oratorio works including Angel in Elgar’s Dream of Gerontius'(LSO St Luke’s), Bach's St John Passion (York Musical Society, York Minster; Ripon Choral Society, Ripon Cathedral), Rossini's Petit Messe Solennelle (Oxford Orpheus), Mozart's Requiem and Haydn's Mass in time of war (North Yorkshire Chorus), Rossini’s Stabat Mater, Schubert’s Mass in B flat, Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9 (Ely Choral Society, Ely Cathedral) and Handel’s Messiah (Harrogate Choral Society, Leicester Philharmonic; Rotherham Choral Society). She appeared at the Zenarruza Sacred Music Festival in Spain performing as the alto soloist in Michael Haydn’s Requiem in C Minor and Vivaldi’s Gloria.
