Ian Bostridge Biography

Ian Bostridge is one of the most popular and richest Opera Singer who was born on December 25, 1964 in Wandsworth, United Kingdom.

He was a Queen’s Scholar at Westminster School. He attended St John’s College, Oxford, where he secured a First in modern history and St John’s College, Cambridge, where he received an M.Phil. in the history and philosophy of science. He was awarded his D.Phil. from Oxford in 1990, on the significance of witchcraft in English public life from 1650 to 1750, supervised by Keith Thomas. He worked in television current affairs and documentaries for two years in London before becoming a British Academy post-doctoral fellow at Corpus Christi College, Oxford, teaching political theory and eighteenth- century British history. He became a full-time singer in 1995, aged 30. His book Witchcraft and Its Transformations, c. 1650–1750 was published as an Oxford Historical Monograph in 1997. This – “the most sophisticated and original of all recent histories of early modern demonology” according to Professor Stuart Clark (“Witchcraft and Magic in Europe” volume 4, p139, 2002, – has been an influential work in the study of the pre-Enlightenment. It “achiev[es] that rarest of feats in the scholarly world: taking a well-worn subject and ensuring that it will never be looked at in quite the same way again” (Noel Malcolm, TLS). In 1991 he won the National Federation of Music Societies Award and from 1992 received support from the Young Concert Artists Trust.

In 1992 Bostridge married the writer and publisher Lucasta Miller, and they have a son and a daughter. His brother is the biographer and critic Mark Bostridge.
