About Elinor

Elinor, a prize-winning Soprano, studies at The RAM, performing classics from Opera and Music Theatre, while moonlighting as a Jazz Singer!
Singer (soprano)
London

London-based Soprano, Elinor Rose Popham, is a highly versatile young singer, currently studying at The Royal Academy of Music, generously supported by the John Clemence Trust. While pursuing a career in opera, she also has a great deal of experience in other genres and loves to perform Show Tunes and Jazz Standards, alongside beautiful opera classics, embracing different styles and characters with real energy. Elinor has recently been awarded several exciting prizes for her singing, including the Opera Unmasked Aria Prize, and the North London and John Miller Young Recitalist Prizes, as well as Runner up of the inaugural Isobel Buchanan Award. She was also selected as one of 20 semi-finalists for the National Mozart Competition in April last year, and later received her first official review from the Stage, who described her singing at Grimebourne Festival as: ‘especially poignant and vocally sophisticated.’ Elinor is keen to work with you to provide a perfect selection of repertoire, to bring a timeless and elegant atmosphere to weddings and receptions, or a even vibrant and engaging night at the opera for a special event. She is also very quick to learn new repertoire to ensure that the music for the occasion is tailored to you and your ideas, especially for funerals and memorials. Elinor is also a very experienced Jazz singer, often performing as part of the Duo, Ruby and Gold with talented pianist and composer, Alex Hall (Guildhall/RAM).

Ellie sang exquisitely at our daughter's wedding last September. We were only allowed a few people at the service and were not allowed to sing ourselves so we worried that the church would feel empty. Ellie was happy to sing all the hymns and some other lovely pieces of music. Her beautiful voice filled the church and made the marriage service feel so intimate and special. Ellie was very helpful ahead of the day and professional throughout.

Having known of Elinor for a few years and closely followed her successful singing career she was the natural choice as my surprise guest during the Private View of the Alresford Arts Festival. The venue for the festival was The Grange Northington Hampshire home of Grange Festival Opera so the perfect setting for Ellie and her accompanist Alex Hall who together are now the wonderful Ruby and Gold. The audience were delighted to hear a well known piece by Puccini, an aria from La Rondine called Chil bel sogno di Doretta, and The Tiara Aria by Jonathan Dove. Both of which were performed to perfection and with Ellie’s beautiful voice and abundant charisma to enthusiastic applause. Their performance was a memorable highlight of the evening.They are a delightful duo and extremely professional performers, I can’t recommend them highly enough-just brilliant.
