The Bostridge Page
Welcome to The Bostridge Page!
What's this then?
This is the all-new Ian Bostridge Fan Page. After going to see him in Berkeley I
decided the old page was horribly outdated and couldn't be rescued, so I started
from scratch again.
Bostridge? Who's he?
He is the world's finest specimen of tenorhood. He doesn't bellow, like some
frightful creatures do, and he has a very fine intellect as well as a beautiful
voice. He received his DPhil - that's PhD to you non-Oxonian peons :) - from Oxford, specifically
St. John's. After that he was a Junior Research Fellow at Corpus Christi (the college, not the town in Texas). Now he's
doing opera and giving concerts all over the place and is more than ever before
hailed as Britain's (and Britten's) new posterboy tenor. He's been 32 for an
awfully long time now, I'm sure he's turned 33 by now.
So what have you got here?
Good question. Since the update, the site has been broken down into multiple files
to make things more organized.
More to come as the site grows...
Links, who's got the links?
Some links to other Bostridge-related sites
- The official page at Hyperion can be found here.
- The page at EMI Classics is here.
- Or you can check out his agent, Lies Askonas Ltd., now part of Harold Holt Ltd.
- On a slightly less reverent note, there's the Ostrich Page, which was given to me as a gift by a charming
young Oxford don nearly a year ago.
