Biography
An excellent student with a degree in contemporary history from Cambridge and Oxford Universities, this specialist in Renaissance witchcraft turned to opera singing in the early 1990s. A revelation at the Aldeburgh Festival, Ian Bostridge is devoted to composers such as Benjamin Britten and Franz Schubert, to whom he dedicates highly rewarded lieder cycles, sometimes accompanied by Julius Drake, Leif Ove Andsnes or Mitsuko Uchida. At the same time, the English tenor revealed his operatic talent in productions by Mozart(Idomeneo, The Abduction from the Seraglio), Stravinsky(The Rake's Progress) and Britten(Death in Venice). Awarded the title of Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 2004, Ian Bostridge began a collaboration with Antonio Pappano on Tristanund Isolde (2005), Wolf's Lieder and Schubert's Swan Song (2009). Equally at home in the Romantic, contemporary and Baroque genres, he has dedicated an opus to three little-known 18th-century tenors(Three Baroque Tenors).
