- **Event Description**: Rufus Wainwright has established himself as one of the great male vocalists, songwriters, and composers of his generation. In a career peppered with critical acclaim, he has been praised by the New York Times for his “genuine originality”. The New York-born, Montreal-raised singer-songwriter has released ten studio albums to date, three DVDs, and three live albums.

He has collaborated with artists such as Elton John, Burt Bacharach, Miley Cyrus, David Byrne, Boy George, and Joni Mitchell.

Further, he has written two operas and numerous songs for movies and TV.

His 2020 Grammy-nominated studio album of original songs, Unfollow the Rules, finds Wainwright at the peak of his powers. Here, he enters artistic maturity with passion, honesty, and a new-found fearlessness. In 2023, he embarked on a journey to his family folk roots with his Grammy-nominated album Folkocracy. This album features reinvented folk duets with Chaka Khan, Brandi Carlile, John Legend, Anohni and many more.

His first musical of John Cassavetes’ Opening Night for the West End with Ivo van Hove premiered at the Gielgud Theater in March 2024. During this time he also completed a Requiem, which premiered with the Orchestre Philharmonique de la Radio France in June of 2024. Co-commissioners for the Requiem are the Master Chorale in Los Angeles and the Palau de la Musica in Barcelona. Also, Helsinki Symphony Orchestra, the RTE Orchestra in Ireland, and the Royal Ballet London.
