Rhys is a graduate of Cardiff University and the Royal College of Music. After graduating from the RCM, Rhys became a member of the Norwegian National Opera, where he worked for three years. Since leaving Oslo, Rhys has worked with some of the UK’s most prestigious opera companies, developing a particularly close relationship with Glyndebourne.
