The Glyndebourne Cup was won last night by Edward Nelson, a San Francisco baritone.

Second was the UK soprano Alexandra Lowe.

Nelson has been with Columbia Artists since 2016. They may need a wake-up call.

You are definitely right. It’s a shame that we didn’t here from this very talented baritone before.
Congratulations and best wishes for the future to Edward Nelson.

Congratulations to Edward Nelson! He must have flown to Glyndebourne directly from Vancouver where he wrapped up a highly acclaimed run of Rossini’s Figaros on Feb. 23.

Here in Cincinnati, we’re all very happy and proud of everything Eddie has accomplished so far in his career. This award is well deserved. He has become a truly remarkable artist, born of intense focus and hard work. It is time for the world to hear him. He’s ready!
