Ron Loo

As a performer, writer, composer-conductor, singer and designer, Ron's journey is fuelled by curiosity and a desire to make a meaningful impact through his work.

Ron's musical path began as a classically-trained boy Soprano. His dedication led him to become a Voices of Singapore Choral Scholar Artiste, studying under the guidance of the esteemed choral conductor Darius Lim. Throughout his childhood, Ron participated in various community and children's choirs, including the Singapore Symphony, nurturing his deep passion for choral music.

Ron’s compositions are deeply inspired by his journey of growth throughout his teenage years, reflecting an emotional maturity that resonates with people’s souls. His recent choral work, "Golden Trees," debuted in June and embodies his distinctive style that deeply connects with audiences.

As a countertenor, he was also awarded a Gold Award at the Voices In Bloom International Singing Competition, judged by Dr. Ang Mei Foong and David Quah, founder of Bel Canto Singers Foundation, in 2021.

With a schedule that takes him around Singapore and the rest of the world, Ron has performed at the most notable venues in the world. In 2023, he performed at New York's Carnegie Hall with Voices of Singapore, a momentous occasion that marked a significant milestone in his journey. Closer to home, he has performed at Singapore’s iconic CHIJMES Hall alongside Grammy-nominated VOCES8 in 2024.

For a decade, Ron has been under the artistic guidance of Dr. Darius Lim, a relationship that has profoundly influenced his growth as an artist. As a premiering singer of the VOS Choral Scholars, Ron participated in landmark events such as the Orchestra of Music Maker's Leonard Bernstein Mass and the Grand Opening of the Singapore State Courts. He was also featured as a soloist on several tracks of Lim's upcoming choral album, distributed by the world's leading classical music label, NAXOS.

In 2023, Ron was offered conducting tutelage from Darius Lim, and has since conducted the VOS Choral Scholars. He also conducted the Dunman High School choir during his stint as student conductor from 2020-2023. His leadership of the VOS Choral Scholars and his work with the Dunman High School choir reflect his commitment to fostering talent in fellow young musicians. He wrote his first mixed-voice choral work "Gloria Luminis" in tribute to graduating singers who were challenged by the pandemic. Ron continues to contribute to the choir, most recently as the 2024 choreographer for their suite of Studio Ghibli works and offers conducting guidance to other aspiring young choral conductors.

Beyond music, he has worked on occasion with Acme Associates since 2019 as a Creative, contributing to design projects and charity events.

In his free time, Ron explores new art forms, always seeking to expand his creative boundaries.
