Acclaimed for his comic talent and strong pres- ence on stage combined with a beautiful and solid voice, Norwegian baritone Leif Jone made his debut at the Royal Danish Opera in Copen- hagen as Moralès in Carmen, while studying at the Royal Danish Opera Academy.

In his final year at the Opera Academy he was offered the title role of Figaro in the Barber of Seville with the Royal Danish Opera. A regular guest soloist at the Royal Danish Opera, he performed the role of Abner in Saul and David at the Royal Danish Opera during the 150th jubilee of the Danish composer Carl Nielsen in spring 2015.

The following year he returned to sing Figaro in the Barber of Seville, and in the 16/17 season he sang the role of Schaunard in La Bohème.

In 2015 Leif Jone won the Ascolta Prize (1st prize) in the Operaens Venners Singing Competition.

The 17/18 season, Leif Jone is part of the soloist ensemble at the Royal Danish Opera. Roles include Figaro in Il barbiere di Siviglia, Marullo in Rigoletto and Bello in Fanciulla del West.
