Winner of the 2006 Borletti-Buitoni Trust Award and the Verbier Festival Academy's 2008 Prix d'Honneur, Joshua Hopkins has been hailed as "...an outstanding young baritone with a virile, vigorous yet velvety sound and an immediately evident dramatic authority." Joshua Hopkins has signed an exclusive recording contract with ATMA Classique and his first recital recording on the label is to be released in 2010. Operatic engagements of the present season include performances with the Metropolitan Opera, Opera Lyra Ottawa, Santa Fe Opera, Pacific Opera Victoria, and Arizona Opera. Joshua Hopkins tours with Bernard Labadie and Les Violons du Roy offering orchestral performances in Quebec, Montreal, Los Angeles, and at Carnegie Hall in New York. Under the auspices of the Marilyn Horne Foundation, he appears in recital at the Santa Fe Concert Association and, in conjunction with the Gilmore Festival, he presents an all-Schumann programme in Michigan. The artist has performed under the batons of Vladimir Ashkenazy, Hans Graf, Bernard Labadie, Sir Trevor Pinnock, and Patrick Summers among others. Profoundly committed to the art of song, Joshua Hopkins has given solo recitals in New York at Carnegie Hall with J.J. Penna, under the auspices of the Vancouver Recital Society with Graham Johnson, and in Toronto, in conjunction with The Aldeburgh Connection. He is proud to have given the world premiere of Michael Tilson Thomas' Rilke Songs at Zankel Hall in New York and to have joined Barbara Bonney for performances of songs by three generations of Mozart (Leopold, Wolfgang Amadeus, and Franz Xaver) under the auspices of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. He also has collaborated, in a program of Haydn part songs, with pianist Richard Goode.
