Tenor Nick Pritchard is fast gaining recognition for his performances of the music of Bach and, in particular, his interpretation of the Evangelist in the Passions.
Described as a ‘Masterly Evangelist’ in The Guardian, he has sung the role in Bach’s St John Passion and St Matthew Passion around the world, and his recording of the St John Passion for Deutsche Grammophon with Sir John Eliot Gardiner was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Choral Performance (2023).
This season sees him performing Bach with Les Arts Florissants (Paul Agnew), the Tonkünstler Orchestra (Stefan Gottfried), Monteverdi Choir and Orchestra (Peter Whelan), Arcangelo (Jonathan Cohen), the Academy of Ancient Music (Laurence Cummings) and at the Thomaskirche Leipzig as part of the Bachfest Leipzig (Andreas Reize). Other highlights include Messiah with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra and Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra.
Also highly regarded as a recitalist, Nick is Artist in Residence with the Temple Music Foundation in September 2025, performing three concerts including Die schöne Müllerin with Julius Drake, and he will also perform Die schöne Müllerin with James Baillieu at the Two Moors Festival.
He celebrates the release of his debut recital album in 2025 for the Signum label, Little Wanderer, with his long-term collaborative partner Ian Tindale.
Other opera roles have included Oronte (Alcina), Lysander (A Midsummer Night’s Dream), Tamino (Die Zauberflöte), Ferrando (Così fan tutte), Amphinomus (The Return of Ulysses) and Purcell’s The Indian Queen.
