Bo Skovhus –
Bo Skovhus is a Danish singer (baritone). He divides his business between opera, lieder and teaching. Skovhus was educated at the Music Conservatory in Aarhus, the Opera Academy in Copenhagen and in New York. After a sensational debut at the Vienna Volksoper in 1988, where he stepped in at short notice in the title role of Don Giovanni (Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart), he quickly made a career on the largest international opera stages, such as the Metropolitan in New York, The Deutsche Oper Berlin, the Paris Opera, as well as the two opera houses in Vienna, at the Salzburg Festival and a number of other festivals.
Bo Skovhus is considered one of the foremost lied interpreters of our time and has played in several albums with songs by, among others, Hugo Wolf, Erich Korngold and Franz Schubert’s Die schöne Müllerin and Schwanengesang.
Skovhus is also active as an educator, such as at the American Institute of Musical Studies in Graz, Austria. He has been a professor at the Norwegian Academy of Music since 2014.
