Robert Tear (b1939)
Robert Tear was born and educated in Wales, and became a choral scholar at KingÂs College, Cambridge. Throughout his career he has shown his versatility and great talent as one of the worldÂs leading tenors and has worked with many eminent conductors. He is sought after by all the major opera houses of Europe and the United States and is a regular guest of various orchestras. He has appeared at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, on a regular basis since his début in l970. In 1988/89 he made his début with English National Opera in
The Turn of
the Screw
and the following season included his highly successful début as Aschenbach in
Death in Venice
with the Glyndebourne Touring Company, later filmed by BBC TV. Robert Tear is also greatly in demand as a concert singer, appearing regularly at the South Bank Centre and in many European capitals. He has worked on many television projects, including the Jeunesses Musicales
War Requiem
performances in East and West Berlin to celebrate the CityÂs 750th Anniversary in l987. Other engagements have included a performance at the Wigmore Hall in which he performed Britten Song Cycles and
Out of Winter
by Jonathan Dove to Robert TearÂs own texts. He has made well over 250 records for every major recording company, including Bach Cantatas, numerous recital records, Victorian ballads with his friends Benjamin Luxon and André Previn, BrittenÂs
Serenade
and
Nocturne
with Giulini, and all the major choral works. From 1992-94 he was Artistic Director of the
