About Reginald Mobley, countertenor
American-born, Grammy-Award-nominated countertenor, Reginald Mobley—noted for his "shimmering voice"—performs on both sides of the Atlantic, from solos in Handel's Messiah with the Philadelphia Orchestra to singing at the coronation of King Charles III with the Monteverdi Choir, and much more. At his solo debut recital in Paris, he performed Purcell, Handel, and Sancho—a program he then repeated in Bayreuth. Alpha Classics released his first solo album to great acclaim in June 2023.
