Adjudicator Spotlight: Bryan Husband GRSM (HONS), ADWCMD
Life as a singer, actor, teacher, adjudicator and ski instructor is what keeps Bryan challenged, solvent, and amused. He has performed in opera houses and musicals around the UK and abroad, has appeared on TV and radio, and has made many recordings. He is a tenor amongst tenors, having sung with Luciano Pavarotti, Placido Domingo, Andrea Bocelli, Roberto Alagna and Josh Groban, to name a few.
Bryan trained at the Royal College of Music, London, and the Welsh College of Music and Drama, Cardiff. Recent performances have been in Dublin, Bordeaux, Cyprus and Guildford, and in Ireland at the Allihies Music Festivals and at David Symes’ Sunday afternoon recitals. Adjudication has recently taken him to Hong Kong, Trinidad and Tobago, Gibraltar, and most recently Worthing, Wadebridge and Hastings. Bryan is also an examiner for Trinity College London in Classical music and Rock & Pop, and recent examining work has seen him in India, South Africa, Hong Kong, Thailand and New Zealand, as well as all over the UK and Ireland.
After some years spent performing abroad, Bryan moved to Guildford, where he held the posts of Head of Singing at Guildford School of Acting, and Lay-Clerk at Guildford Cathedral (from Bach to Bernstein, effortlessly). He now works as a freelance performer, tutor at Trinity Laban, examiner and adjudicator, has private singing practices in London and Worcester, and divides his time between homes in Worcester and in County Cork.
