Clear and precise, Ruth Holton’s voice is ideally suited to the soprano parts in early choral music as well as the technically demanding solos in Baroque music. Born in 1961, and a choral exhibitioner at Clare College, Cambridge, she enjoyed early professional success with a solo role in John Eliot Gardiner’s recording of Bach’s St. John Passion in 1986. She recorded extensively with Gardiner and the Monteverdi Choir, as well as contributing to the complete Bach cantata series of Ton Koopman and Pieter Leusink. From the mid-1980s Holton also sang with the Tallis Scholars on many of their seminal recordings of Renaissance choral music, including Tallis’ Spem in alium.
She has sung a broader repertory with the Cambridge Singers directed by John Rutter, and as her voice has developed, she has tackled demanding solo roles in Verdi’s Requiem, Strauss’ Four Last Songs, and modern works by John Adams and Steve Reich. As a conductor and organist, she directs music at All Saints West Dulwich in London.
