The Globe Sunday matinee series resumes on February 27 with classics for tenor and baritone.
Iain Tetley developed his passion for singing in England from an early age. He studied with opera singer John York Skinner, and gained his music degree at the University of East Anglia, Norwich. Since coming to New Zealand in 1997, Tetley has performed many times as a soloist with Auckland's leading choirs, and he was a member of the specialist chamber choir Musica Sacra.
His career highlights include performing the baritone solo in Carl Orff's Carmina Burana with Auckland Choral; singing the tenor solo part of Zadok the priest in excerpts of Handel's Solomon alongside world-renowned countertenor Andreas Scholl at the Auckland Town Hall, and performing the Evangelist roles in Bach's Christmas Oratorio with City Choir Dunedin.
He has made many other solo appearances with Bach Musica and the Handel Consort and Quire of Auckland, and with the Scholars Baroque Aotearoa in Tauranga. Last year, Tetley sang the tenor solos in the Palmerston North Choral Society's Highlights from Messiah.
