Anthony Inglis has been described in the UK press as “one of Britain’s most popular conductors” (Manchester Evening news) and is believed to have appeared more often at The Royal Albert Hall than anyone else. He leads a busy international conducting career, appearing with some of the greatest orchestras in concert halls and recording studios around the world from New Zealand to Scandinavia via Japan and the USA.

He is currently Music Director of the London Concert Orchestra and the Welsh mezzo Katherine Jenkins and he has been Music Supervisor/Consultant for Phantom of The Opera at Her Majesty’s Theatre since 1987.

In the world of opera, he has conducted Carmen at the opening of the Llangollen Festival, and in ballet he has conducted all three Tchaikovsky ballets for Birmingham Royal Ballet and English National Ballet.

He has also conducted a number of royal concerts: a dance gala with The Royal Ballet Sinfonia in the presence of the late Diana, Princess of Wales; four concerts with the Royal Philharmonic - celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Battle of Britain - in the presence of HM The Queen and HRH The Duke of Edinburgh; a concert in the grounds of Buckingham Palace celebrating the Diamond Jubilee and transmitted on BBC1; and the naming ceremonies for Queen Mary 2, Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth.

In addition to the three Cunard ship naming ceremonies, he conducted the 40th Anniversary and Farewell concerts of Queen Elizabeth 2 with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic in Liverpool Cathedral, and all the Round Britain concerts both in Liverpool Cathedral and on board the ships. He and the NSO have crossed the Atlantic on Queen Mary 2 every year since 2009.
