Della Jones is a Welsh mezzo-soprano, particularly well known for her interpretations of works by Handel, Mozart, Rossini, Donizetti, and Britten.
In Geneva she made her professional debut in 1970, as Feodor in Boris Godunov and Olga in Eugene Onegin.
[2] Her repertoire ranges from baroque to contemporary works, with a specialty in the bel canto operas, notably of Rossini.
In the mid 1970s she began a long association with Opera Rara, appearing in many long-forgotten bel canto works, both on stage and on recording.
She can be heard in complete recordings of Donizetti's Ugo, conte di Parigi, L'assedio di Calais, Maria Padilla, Meyerbeer's Il crociato in Egitto and Rossini's Ricciardo e Zoraide and made a solo album with the title Della Jones sings Donizetti, in all of which one can appreciate her impeccable coloratura technique and strong feeling for words and music.
