MEET THE SOLOIST: Eleonore Cockerham

Soprano Eleonore Cockerham performs HANDEL'S MESSIAH
December 15 at 3PM

Background: Yorkshire born singer and teacher Eleonore Cockerham began performing internationally as a soloist from the age of 12. Eleonore went on to study at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, where she studied under the tutelage of mezzo soprano Louise Winter. In 2017, Eleonore was able to combine her love of performing and teaching with vocal ensemble VOCES8, after being selected to join the group as the youngest of their full-time members from over 500 applicants. Touring across the globe, Eleonore enjoyed working with students of all ages and abilities, and some of her favorite performances with VOCES8 singing as a soloist and with the ensemble were at Sydney Opera House, Tokyo Opera City, Palacio de Belle's Artes, Mexico, and BBC Proms at Cadogen Hall, London. After nearly four years, Eleonore chose to step down as a full-time member of VOCES8 in order to give more time to her family, friends, and faith. Now as a freelance singer and teacher, Eleonore sings and teaches in a range of styles (classical, choral, jazz, folk, pop), and regularly sings as a member of the VOCES8 Foundation choir, Apollo5, Kantos Chamber Choir, Ensemble Altera. Additionally, she frequently travels across the UK and abroad to sing as a soloist and deliver workshops and masterclasses. Eleonore also has plenty of recording experience featuring on several albums with VOCES8, Ensemble Altera, Jacob Collier, Sarah Beattie, Joyful Noise, and features as a soprano soloist on the soundtrack to feature film The Last Duel, and in season four of the Netflix series, The Crown.
