About the artist Ben Heppner

Ben Heppner

Ben Heppner was born in Murrayville, BC (Canada) on 14 January 1956. In 1974 he began studies at the University of British Columbia Music School and won the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation Talent Competition five years later. In 1988 he received the first Birgit Nilsson Prize at the Metropolitan Opera Auditions, making his United States debut at Carnegie Hall in a Command Performance for the King and Queen of Sweden and his US opera debut as Walther von der Vogelweide in Tannhäuser at the Lyric Opera of Chicago. His European debut came one year later as Lohengrin at the Royal Swedish Opera, followed by his debut at La Scala, Milan in 1990 as Walther von Stolzing in Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg, and his Japanese debut with Das Lied von der Erde in 1991.

Ben Heppner has won numerous awards and distinctions, including several honorary doctorates from Canadian universities, the Royal Philharmonic Society’s Music Award 2005 and Queen Elizabeth II’s Golden Jubilee Medal 2002; in 2001 he was made an Officer within the Order of Canada.

"Ben Heppner is one of today’s truly great dramatic tenors." - BBC Music Magazine, June 2005
