Jedediah Allen
American Bass-baritone and cornettist Jedediah Allen received his Associates Degree and Bachelor of the Arts in vocal performance from Central Washington University where he studied opera, art song, and jazz predominately. After starting a career in early music, Jedediah pursued a masters degree in voice at the Early Music Institute at Indiana University where he studied under Paul Elliot and Nigel North. There, he also began studies in cornetto performance under Kiri Tollaksen which led him to be featured as a cornett player and vocal soloist at both Boston and Berkeley Early Music festivals where he also collaborated with noted ensembles such as “Voices of Music” and “Magnificat.”
Mr. Allen then re-located to Basel, Switzerland to study at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis. He has since been awarded two masters degrees: first in cornett performance under Bruce Dickey and the second in the AVES (Advances Vocal Ensemble Studies) program directed by Anthony Rooley and Evelyn Tubb. While in Europe, Jedediah has performed in as well as recorded with many ensembles and projects most notably with Anthony Rooley, Hervé Niquet, and is a member of Ensemble La Sestina and Chant 1450.
Jedediah mogen we op 18 december 2016 verwelkomen, samen met Vera Hiltbrunner (sopraan) en Manuel Dahme (klavecimbel en orgel).
