Charles has an affinity for song and is a member of the Song Circle at RAM for whom he gave the world premiere of ‘I Wake’ by Roderick Williams. He has performed in the final of the 67th Kathleen Ferrier Awards in 2022 and at the Oxford Lieder festival alongside Dame Sarah Connolly and Graham Johnson. He has recorded the baritone solos in both Vaughan Williams’ Love bade me welcome and Finzi’s In terra pax for BBC Radio 3, and recently sang at Wigmore Hall.

In opera, he has performed the role of Guccio in RAO’s production of Gianni Schicchi and Keeper (The Rake’s Progress). He is now preparing Tobia Mill for this summer’s production of Rossini’s La Cambiale di Matrimonio.
