Countertenor Derek Lee Ragin is somewhat better known for his portrayals on the operatic stage than for the many concerts he has appeared in. His repertory is amazingly broad, encompassing works by Baroque composers – Handel, in particular – as well as twentieth century ones, like Benjamin Britten and György Ligeti.
His career as a singer flourished quickly, with an official operatic debut in 1983 at the Innsbruck Festwoche der Alten Musik in Cesti's Il Tito. After vocal study in Amsterdam he won first prize in the ARD International Music Competition (1986). Two years later he debuted at the Met singing Nirenus in Handel's Giulio Cesare.
After further impressive debuts (1990 Salzburg Festival in Gluck's Orfeo), Ragin's recordings began to achieve acclaim. His CD of Handel's Giulio Cesare on the Harmonia Mundi label won a Gramophone award in 1992, and his Telarc recording of Bernstein's Chichester Psalms, Missa Brevis, and Walton's Belshazzar's Feast won a Grammy award in 1995.
For the 1994 movie Farinelli, about eighteenth century castrati Carlo Broschi who used the stage name of Farinelli, Ragin sang the vocal parts, and the film went on to receive a Golden Globe for Best Foreign Film in 1995.
Ragin appeared at the 1998 Tanglewood Festival with Seiji Ozawa and the Boston Symphony Orchestra for a successful reprising of Bernstein's Chichester Psalms. Ragin has maintained a busy schedule of operatic and concert appearances in the new century and remains active in the recording studio, as well. In 2005 Naxos issued a CD featuring Ragin in works by Benjamin Britten.
