Last seasons he also sang in productions of Holland Opera (Het Meermeisje), Opera Zuid (Il barbiere di Siviglia, Un ballo in maschera) and the Nederlandse Reisopera (La traviata). During the 2015-2016 season Jorne sang the role of Le Gendarme Les mamelles de Tirésias as part of the talent development programme of Dutch National Opera & Ballet and Masetto Don Giovanni with the Dutch National Opera Academy.
