Born and bred in Swansea, and a graduate of Clare College Cambridge in Anglo-Saxon,
Norse and Celtic, Elin has established a reputation for herself
as one of the UK's leading young sopranos. Her début album with
Universal Classics and Jazz, Eternal Light, entered the classical
charts at number two. Elin is the first singer ever to record
Bach's Alles mit Gott, a birthday ode written in 1713 and dramatically
recovered in 2005. On Easter Sunday 2009 she performed before
Pope Benedict XVI in the Vatican, in a performace of Andrew T.
Miller's Birth of Christ. She first received great acclaim for
her 'Pie Jesu' on Naxos' award-winning recording of the Rutter
Requiem, and was praised as soloist in Bach's St Matthew Passion
at the Thomaskirche in Leipzig, under Sir John Eliot Gardiner.
2007 saw her perform in Classic FM's fifteenth birthday concert,
and in Songs of Praise's 'The Big Sing', and she was the subject
of an S4C fly-on-the-wall documentary which was nominated for
a prize at the 2007 Celtic Film Festival. In 2008 Elin performed
the World Première of Sir John Tavener's Requiem in Liverpool
Cathedral (also recorded for EMI) and made her début at the Wigmore
Hall with the Academy of Ancient Music. She has performed in
many of the world's leading venues, among them the Lincoln Center,
New York; the San Francisco Symphony Hall; the Royal Albert Hall;
Birmingham Symphony Hall; Westminster Abbey; the Conzertgebouw
in Amsterdam; the Palau de Musica, Barcelona; the Casa de Musica
in Porto; and St Mark's, Venice.
