Described as 'unflaggingly robust' by Opera Magazine, Brian is an operatic tenor, based in London (UK), freelancing around Europe and the United States. As a lyric Heldentenor, his favourite roles have been Siegmund in Die Walküre and the title roles of Tristan, Parsifal, and Peter Grimes. Recently, Brian had the pleasure of singing the rarity of Mark in Ethel Smyth's The Wreckers, as part of the centenary of Women's Suffrage. And coming up, he will be revisiting another favourite role of Samson in Samson et Dalila.
Brian teaches most vocal styles, having had extensive training in classical and music theatre techniques. Additionally, he has music directed a number of musicals over the last decade. This, combined with being an active performer and teacher in UK institutions for over 10 years, gives him a unique amount of experience and expertise for singing students.
