Having received his first musical training on the piano at age 5, Henry holds degrees in solo trombone from Oberlin Conservatory of Music (USA) and the Staatliche Hochschule für Musik Trossingen (DE), following his time as a member of the Philharmonic Orchestra of Mainz (DE) for the 2015-2016 season. He subsequently earned degrees from the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis (CH) in both Renaissance Voice with Katarina Livljanić and Historical Trombones with Charles Toet and Catherine Motuz, during which he completed the first English translation of Johann Andreas Herbst’s landmark treatise on 17th-century ornamentation, Musica Practica (1642).

Henry’s repertoire spans from the late Middle Ages to the late Classical period, with a particular affinity for Renaissance and Early Baroque works. His unique combination of a warm, expressive high tenor voice and highly agile trombone technique allows him to fluidly switch between voice and instrument, offering an unusually wide range of musical possibilities. Equally comfortable as a soloist or ensemble singer, Henry offers a deeply personal approach to early music, unifying historical knowledge and artistic interpretation into a single, cohesive voice.

Released in 2026, Henry’s debut album IMPERIAL ARIAS with the Basel-based trio Le Filigrane, premiering recently rediscovered arias from 18th-century Vienna for mezzo-soprano, trombone and organ. Henry was chosen to be an Artist-in-Residence for 2024 at Schloss Weißenbrunn, together with harpsichordist and organist Rafaela Salgado. Their duo Con Gratia e Dispositione explores the written and improvised ornamentation practices of the late 16th and early 17th centuries by composers such as Bovicelli, dalla Casa, Rognoni and Bassano. He is also a founding member of the Basel-based ensemble for 17th century music, Celesti Fiori.

A regular presence on stages across Europe, North America and Asia, Henry collaborates with ensembles such as Concerto Scirocco, I Fedeli, Le Miroir de Musique, La Fonte Musica, the Innsbrucker Hofmusik, Capella Helvetica, Castello Consort, Ensemble Peregrina, Ensemble La Chimera, ReRenaissance Basel, Margaretha Consort, Capriccio Barockorchester, the Augsburger Domsingknaben, Harmonia Stellarum Houston, the Lucerne Festival Academy Orchestra, Les Haulz et les Bas, Cappella Marciana, and many others. He records for a variety of labels including Ricercar, Linn, MSR Classics, Raumklang, Amadeus, ARS Produktion and Ossa, including the Gramophone award-winning ‘The Krasinski Codex: 15th Century Music from Cracow’.

An in-demand pedagogue, Henry has given workshops at Westersteder Workshop für Alte Musik, Alte Musik in Hof (DE), Urbino Musica Antica (IT), the Escola de Música da Sé de Évora (PT) and Cantare et Sonare (A). Henry’s editions are published by Septenary Editions. Since 2025, Henry has been a doctoral candidate at the Anton Bruckner Universität Linz, where his research focuses on the translation of vocal and instrumental ornamentation treatises to the historical trombone.
