Jeremy Huw Williams is a baritone opera singer from Wales.

A vocalist of global renown, he makes himself heard in contemporary classical music.

Next week, Jeremy will perform here on our campus - the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga - at the Cadek Recital Hall on Tuesday, September 19th starting at 7:30 PM.

While at UTC, he will also conduct a masterclass and visit a few classrooms.
