Sought after as a song accompanist and chamber musician, Jonathan Ware has appeared over the last year at major venues across Europe including the Théâtre des Champs-Elysée, Berlin Staatsoper, Bordeaux Opera, and the Concertgebouw Amsterdam. He returned to Wigmore Hall with Elsa Dreisig, Robin Tritschler and Timothy Ridout (viola), and to the United States, where he gave recitals at Carnegie Hall with Golda Schulz, the Kennedy Center with Brenda Rae, and the University of California with Luca Pisaroni.

Other highlights included the release of recordings with Elsa Dreisig for Warner, Ludwig Mittelhammer for Berlin Classics and Bayerisches Rundfunk, and Sharon Carty for Genuin.

This season Jonathan Ware collaborates with Bejun Mehta, Manuel Welser, Ludwig Mittelhammer, Golda Schulz, and Elsa Dresig. He records with oboist Olivier Stankiewicz for Delphian, and in 2021 returns to the United States.

Born in Texas, Mr. Ware now resides in Berlin where he teaches at the Hochschule ‘Hanns Eisler’ and Barenboim-Said Academy. He regularly attends the Verbier Festival Academy and Samling Institute as mentor.

In 2014 he was a prize winner at the YCAT International Auditions.
