David Butt Philip, Part 1
Welcome back to Diva Download, a podcast interviewing stars of the opera world. For our sixth interview, Sophie and Indyana are joined by the sensational British tenor David Butt Philip. In Part 1, David explains his unconventional start in rock bands and musicals before choral singing and then eventual training as a baritone. He tells of his ‘no brainer’ decision to switch to tenor, finding his niche in German and Slavic music, keeping his ‘money notes’ reliable, and stepping in for Jonas Kaufmann last minute.
