The Richard Tauber Prize for Singers was created in 1950 by the Anglo-Austrian Music Society in memory of Richard Tauber, one of the world’s greatest singers. It has been awarded 28 times.

The competition is for outstanding young singers nearing the end of their studies or just beginning their professional careers.

Preliminary auditions will be held in London and in Vienna in April. The dates for the London auditions are 15, 16 and 17 April. The Public Final Audition will be held at Wigmore Hall on
4 June 2008 and will be decided by a distinguished jury before leading representatives of the musical world.

The Anglo-Austrian Music Society acknowledges, with grateful thanks,
the support of the Sir John Fisher Foundation and the Anglo-Austrian Society.
