In today’s Samling Artist profile we introduce tenor Timothy Charles Langston.
Timothy read Music at the University of Manchester and latterly at the Royal Northern College of Music. Earlier this year he set up Manchester Opera Ensemble and has since directed Menotti’s radio opera The Old Maid and the Thief and Britten’s The Turn of the Screw.
He has previously sung with Opera North, European Opera Center, the Gabrieli Consort and British Youth Opera, as well as taking the role of an Apostle in Elgar’s The Apostles with The Hallé under the baton of Sir Mark Elder.
