Swedish baritone HAKAN HAGEGARD was catapulted into stardom by his delightful appearance as Papageno in Ingmar Bergman’s

film version of Mozart’s The Magic Flute. Since then, his sophisticated artistry and keen sense ofsubtlety have earned him a place of

rank among the world’s most accomplished singers. The broad

range of his skills can be demonstrated by listing just a few of his

undertakings in the last year, including performances of Mozart’s

Don Giovanni in Madrid; the premiere performance of a new work

by Dominic Argento in St. Paul, Minnesota; an appearance as soloist with the Orchestre de Paris; and last November’s critically acclaimed Washington Choral Arts Society performance ofBenjamin

Britten’s War Requiem.

In addition to performing and recording the traditional German

recital repertoire, such as Schubert’s Winterreise, Schumann’s

Dichterliebe, and Wolf’s ItalienischesLiederbuch, Mr. Hagegard is one of

the few living performers to have recorded all ofGrieg’s Fifty Songs.

His operatic recordings include Don Giovanni, The Magic Flute, and

TheMarriage ofFigaro for Decca, and Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana for

Telarc, RCA, and BMG. The latter company has also released Mr.

Hagegard’s recordings of Schubert’s Die Schone Miillerin with pianist Emanuel Ax and Grieg songs with Warren Jones. When Maestro Kurt Masur decided to record Brahms’ German Requiem with

the New York Philharmonic, he invited Mr. Hagegard to sing the

baritone solos. He has also recorded the same work with James

Levine and the Chicago Symphony. In addition to the Bergman

film mentioned above, Mr. Hagegard’s voice can be heard in the

role of Wolfram on the soundtrack of the Warner Brothers’ film,

Meeting Venus.

A native of Sunne, Sweden, Mr. Hagegard has been appointed

Vocalist to His Majesty, KingCarl GustavXVI (1985) and was elected

to the Royal Swedish Academy (1989). He lives on the grounds of

a music center he founded in Brunskog, Sweden, which is called

HageGarden. The center is a complex of buildings in a rural setting, which includes a recital hall, the latest in recording and telecommunications equipment, and hotel accommodations for performers who use the center as a retreat.

Pianist WARREN JONES frequently performs with many wellknown artists, including Hakan Hagegard, Marilyn Horne, Dame

Kiri Te Kanawa, Samuel Ramey, and James Morris. He has appeared on television with Luciano Pavarotti and has recorded a

Deutsche Grammophon video with Kathleen Battle. He has often

been a guest artist at Carnegie Hall and in Lincoln Center’s Great

Performers series, as well as at the festivals ofTanglewood, Ravinia,
