Opera Singer. A dramatic tenor of varied repertoire, he shall undoubtedly be remembered for his Wagnerian performances in major venues on both sides of the Atlantic. Raised in the west of England, he worked on the docks while studying voice with private teachers. Following training at the Royal College of Music, he made his 1957 professional bow with Sadler's Wells Opera (now, English National Opera) as Tinca from Puccini's "Il Tabarro". Remedios refined his skills in such roles as Florestan of Beethoven's "Fidelio", Alfredo from Verdi's "La Traviata", Bacchus of Richard Strauss' "Ariadne auf Naxos", Tamino in Mozart's "The Magic Flute", and the title leads of Gounod's "Faust", Benjamin Britten's "Peter Grimes", and Saint-Saens' "Samson et Dalila", though he gradually assumed his true niche of Wagnerian Heldentenor in performances conducted by the legendary Sir Reginald Goodall. Remedios' signature piece was to be Siegfried in the "Siegfried" and "Gotterdammerung" portions of the "Ring Cycle", though the also earned praise as Siegmund in "Die Walkure", Walter from "Die Meistersinger", and the title leads of "Lohengrin" and "Tristan und Isolde". He made his 1965 Covent Garden bow as Dimitri from Mussorgsky's "Boris Godunov", took the tenor leads in Sir Reginald's famous English language complete "Ring Cycle" which was mostly preserved in 1973, was first heard at the Metropolitan Opera on March 20, 1976 as Bacchus, was Mark for the world premiere recording of Sir Michael Tippett's "The Midsummer Marriage", though he had not sung the initial live performances, and in 1981 was designated Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE). He continued a busy schedule, being heard regularly in Frankfurt, Buenos Aires, San Francisco, and Seattle, retired to Australia in 1999, and died following a protracted illness. At his death, and probably forever, Sir Reginald's "Ring" remained in print and he could also be heard on numerous 'live' pirates.
