Hannah Devereux [pictured above] is a 21 year old soprano from Wexford, Ireland, currently in her final undergraduate year at Royal Birmingham Conservatoire studying with Jonathon Gunthorpe.

With a background in musical theatre, Hannah continues to enjoy taking part in musicals (Rapunzel/Into the Woods, Wife/Putting it Together, Isabel/Pirates of Penzance). In 2023, Hannah performed in the premiere of Dr Andrew Synnott’s youth opera, Seedlings, in the National Opera House in Wexford. In 2024, Hannah represented her university in the finals of the Junior Kathleen Ferrier Vocal Competition.

Since joining the Conservatoire, Hannah has played the roles of Valetto in Monteverdi's L'incoronazione di Poppea, Dorothee in Massenet's Cendrillon, Bellangere in Dukas's Ariane et Barbe-bleue, Nancy in Britten's Albert Herring and sang in the choruses of Humperdinck’s Hansel and Gretel and Purcell’s Dido and Aeneas.

Last year, Hannah received the Young Musician bursary from Music for Wexford which included her first solo public recital with pianist Rebecca Warren. Hannah is very grateful to have been supported by the Stephen Dodgson Charitable Trust, the Josephine Baker Trust, the AIMS society and the Ella Cheshire scholarship award during her studies.
