About
Described by the BBC as “England’s Mario Lanza” and "simply brilliant" by The Times, Alexander Grove is one of the most versatile tenors to have emerged from the UK in recent years. He is an award-winning lyric-spinto tenor, performing on stage and screen, known for his versatility, wide range of repertoire, interpretations and stagecraft. Currently signed to Universal Music and a resident tenor at Gothenburg Opera, Sweden, Alexander is a former boy chorister of St Paul’s Cathedral, London and later trained as an undergraduate and post-graduate at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester and the Georg Solti Accademia di Bel Canto in Italy. Alexander’s solo career spans the opera, oratorio, concert and musical theatre stages, television, radio and recordings: from recording at Abbey Road Studios, London to performing to capacity crowds of over 30,000 per night in some of Europe’s largest venues such the O2 Arena, to lead roles in opera houses around the UK and Europe such as the Royal Opera, London, to over 4.5 million on Sweden's largest televised music show "Melodifestivalen".
Having trained under or performed with some of the world’s most respected artists such as Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, Nicolai Gedda and Sir Georg Solti amongst many others, Alexander established himself early on as a versatile and respected soloist. He has been fortunate to have performed and toured not just locally in the UK and Europe but all over the world from the USA to Japan and as far flung as Teatro Amazonas in the Amazonian rainforest.
In addition to performing, Alexander is a private vocal + stagecraft coach and consultant. He supports students through his private studio as well as being a former Visiting Fellow of the University of Aberdeen and is often invited to teach or give masterclasses in stagecraft, vocal technique and stage fighting in specialist institutions, opera houses and music colleges.
