Biography
British lyric baritone Huw Montague Rendall is the son of tenor David Rendall and mezzo-soprano Diane Montague. Trained at London's Royal College of Music with Russell Smythe, who continues to follow his development, he began appearing on European opera stages in 2015, in Riders to the Sea at London's British Youth Opera and then The Barber of Seville at the BBC Proms. He joined the Zurich Opera workshop, where he performed roles in Verdi's Don Carlos, Shostakovich's Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk, Wagner's Lohengrin, Strauss's Salome and Puccini's Madame Butterfly. Subsequently admitted to the Salzburg Festival's Young Artist Programme, Huw Montague Rendall then tackled Berg's Wozzeck, before making his mark at the 2018 Aix-en-Provence Festival in Strauss's Ariane à Naxos, which led to his Paris debut the following year at the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées. Her appearances multiply as the seasons go by, at the Munich Opera, the Glyndebourne Festival and the Chicago Opera in 2021, and at the Paris Opera in 2022 and 2023. After appearances on Malcolm Martineau's album Complete Songs of Duparc and Ben Glassberg's opera La Clemenza di Tito by Mozart in 2022, the baritone signs his first Contemplation recital in 2024, featuring a variety of arias by Mozart, Gounod, Mahler, Britten and Korngold.
