The English counter-tenor, Iestyn Davies, was a boy treble in the choir of St John’s College, Cambridge. He began singing counter-tenor in his teens, at Wells Cathedral School. He returned to St John's as a choral scholar, graduating in archaeology and anthropology. He gained his DipRAM from and was later appointed ARAM by the Royal Academy of Music in London. In 2004 he won the Audience Prize at the London Handel Singing Competition. In 2010 he was named Young Artist of the Year by the Royal Philharmonic Society. He is the son of cellist Ioan Davies, a founder member of the Fitzwilliam Quartet and a member of St. John's College.
A versatile counter-tenor equally at home on both the opera and concert stage, Iestyn Davies has sung the roles of Ottone IL'incoronazione di Poppea by Monteverdi for Zürich Opera and Glyndebourne Festival Opera; Arsace in Partenope by George Frideric Handel for New York City Opera; Oberon in A Midsummer Night’s Dream by Benjamin Britten for Houston Grand Opera; Apollo in Death in Venice by B.

He has worked with many of the leading orchestras including the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, Academy of Ancient Music, Scottish Chamber Orchestra, London Philharmonic Orchestra, Britten Sinfonia,Concerto Köln, Concerto Copenhagen, Ensemble Matheus and Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra.
Praised as having “one of the most glorious counter-tenor voices in the world today” by the Independent and called “superb” by the New York Times, Iestyn Davies confirmed his status as one of the world’s rising stars of the international music scene in winning the Young Artist prize at the Royal Philharmonic Society Awards, 2010.
Future operatic and concert engagements see Iestyn Davies making his double New York debuts in recital at the Carnegie Hall and the Metropolitan Opera where he is scheduled to return in 2012 and 2013. In Chicago he will debut at the Lyric Opera in G.F. Handel’s Rinaldo. He will debut at La Scala, Milan in the coming season in B. Britten’s Death in Venice and in the UK he will sing the role of Creonte in Niobe by Steffani at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden and Oberon in A Midsummer Night’s Dream by B. Britten at English National Opera. He continues to enjoy a successful relationship with the Wigmore Hall where he made his debut solo recording on the Wigmore Live label, with regular recitals and concerts in the coming few seasons.
Increasingly in demand as a recording artist, Iestyn Davies' available discs include two versions of G.F. Handel’s Messiah (New College Oxford, Academy of Ancient Music/Naxos and Polyphony, Britten Sinfonia/Hyperion), Griselda by Antonio Vivaldi for Naïve, Lukaswzewski’s Via Crucis and G.F. Handel’s Chandos Anthems on Hyperion, G.F. Handel’s Flavio for Chandos with The Early Opera Company and Christian Curnyn, J.S. Bach’s Easter Oratorio (BWV 249) with Retrospect Ensemble and Live at the Wigmore Hall with his own Ensemble Guadagni.
