Benjamin Bevan won a scholarship to study at the Guildhall School, London and made his international début at Lausanne Opera in La Cenerentola.

He made his UK début at Scottish Opera as Marcello La Bohème followed by return invitations to sing Fleville and Fouquier-Tinville in Andrea Chenier under Sir Richard Armstrong and Riccardo I Puritani, Lescaut in Massenet’s Manon and Marcello in the revival of La Bohème under Francesco Corti.

This year he will make his debut at The Royal Opera, Covent Garden singing Henry Cuffe in Gloriana by Benjamin Britten. In 2014 he will debut at Welsh National Opera in two new productions: singing Lescaut in Henze’s Boulevarde de Solitude followed by Roderick Usher in Getty’s Usher House.

Benjamin Bevan is represented worldwide by Robert Slotover at Rayfield Allied.

  (May / June 2009)
  
  ...but there is good support, too, from the lesser characters, particularly Benjamin Bevan’s nice-but-dim Lescaut.
  The Guardian
  ...Benjamin Bevan’s goodtime Lescaut provides the laughs.
  The Times
  As Lescaut, here a helpless buffoon rather than the venal pimp of Puccini’s Opera, Benjamin Bevan’s smooth, attractive baritone fits Massenet’s stylistic hybrid to perfection.
  The Independent
  Benjamin Bevan, who made such a great impression in 'Puritani' last March, sounds vigorous and reckless as Lescaut...
