AMBROSE CHIU / 邱國琛

Ambrose Chiu, born and raised in Hong Kong, is currently a Year 1 classical high baritone at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London studying under John Evans. Singing as a young chorister, Ambrose started performing in a young musician programme organised by Opera Hong Kong in which he was chosen as Harold Hill in “Music Man” and Papageno in “Magic Flute” at the age of ten. Being a multi-instrumentalist, Ambrose also plays the bass trombone and the tuba as his secondary studies. Both instruments have brought him rich musical experiences and deepened his musical understanding. To develop both his technical and musical skills as a performer, Ambrose pursued his studies in Wells Cathedral School in 2019. With the support of Andrew Kidd, his confidence was boosted and his technical skills were advanced. As a vocal specialist at Wells Cathedral School, Ambrose has been provided with many incredible opportunities, such as barbershop singing, chamber choirs and chapel choir. During his high school years, Ambrose also served as a band chairman and choirmaster of St. Paul’s College, Hong Kong.
