Sam Gray (Baritone, Piano, Conductor)

Born: December 31, 2002 - Birmingham, England

The English baritone singer, pianist and conductor, studied at King Edward VI Camp Hill School for Boys. He first came to specia notice when he gained the lead role in the Junior Musical Smike, based on the Charles Dickens novel Nicholas Nickleby, when in Year 7. Since then he has developed his enjoyment of music and his skills, gaining a distinction in both grade 8 singing and piano. When in the Sixth Form he decided to try for a music place at Cambridge, and a choral scholarship, and made contact with Trinity College, a college with a fine reputation for music, and a superb Chapel Choir.

In 2021, Sam Gray won a music scholarship to Trinity College Cambridge and was also awarded a choral scholarship in Trinity College Choir of Cambridge. At Cambridge University Opera Society he was Répétiteur in W.A. Mozart's The Magic Flute (February 2023) and Musical Director of Orpheus in the Underworld (February 2024); and sang in the chorus of Acis and Galatea (February 2022), Die Fledermaus (February 2022), Venus and Adonis (June 2022), George Frideric Handel's Semele (October 2022). He has participated in several productions of J.S. Bach's Cantatas by Trinity College Music Society as conductor and/or chorus member (2023). In June 2023, he conducted the TCMS Orchestra in F. Chopin's Concerto in F minor  Op. 21 with the pianist Dominika Mak.
