His musical education, including piano, cello and voice, starts at the Escolania de Montserrat and the Escola de Música de Barcelona. He holds bachelor degrees in Choral Conducting and Singing from the ESMUC in Barcelona before going on to study at the Guildhall School with Professor Rudolf Piernay. Josep-Ramon Olivé takes vocal master classes from Graham Johnson, Gerald Finley, Malcolm Martineau, Kurt Widmer, Josep Bros, Luigi Alva and Teresa Berganza, among others.
Olivé’s stage appearances include important venues such as Barcelona’s Palau de la Música Catalana, Amsterdam’s Het Concertgebouw, Hamburg’s Elbphilharmonie, Shanghai Grand Theatre, Kölner Philharmonie, Moscow’s Tchaikovsky Concert Hall, Philharmonie de Paris, Kontzerthaus Wien and London’s Wigmore Hall and Barbican Hall; orchestras such as Le Concert des Nations, Barcelona Symphony Orchestra, Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment and London Handel Orchestra; and great conductors such as Jordi Savall, William Christie, Kazushi Ono, Josep Pons, Laurence Cummings, Víctor Pablo Pérez and Sigiswald Kujken.

He debuts on the stage of Gran Teatre del Liceu with Candide, Kátia Kabanová, Tosca and more recently the roles of Masseto in Don Giovanni and Schaunard in La Bohème, as well as his return to Peralada with Diàlegs de Tirant e Carmesina.
