Born in Hertfordshire, England, of German-Austrian parentage, Peter Bronder studied at the Royal Academy of Music, London as well as at the National Opera Studio, before taking his first engagements at Glyndebourne and Welsh National Opera, where he was engaged as principal tenor. During this early phase of his career he sang many leading roles in the Italian lyric repertoire including those in La Boheme, Tosca, La Traviata, Rigoletto, Lucia di Lammermoor, Maria Stuarda, Don Pasquale, I Puritani, La Sonnambula and Barber of Seville; as well as Die Zauberflote, Cosi fan tutte, Eugene Onegin, Die Fledermaus and Der Rosenkavalier (Italian Tenor). Recently he has moved into the more dramatic, predominantly German repertoire, whilst retaining the lyrical qualities necessary for the Mozartean roles of Idomeneo and Tito, which he has performed at Glyndebourne. Notable recent successes have been Loge (Das Rheingold) for Scottish Opera at the Edinburgh Festival and Stuttgart Opera, Erik (Die Fliegende Hollaender) in France, as well as his American debut with the Cleveland Orchestra as Mime (Siegfried).

He has returned to guest at Welsh National Opera in Iphigenie en Tauride, as well as Peter Stein’s productions of Falstaff and Peter Grimes.
Notable engagements abroad include Herod Salome and Sendorf (The Makropoulous Case) for La Scala Milan, Narraboth Salome and Mazal Mr. Broucek for the Bayerische Staatsoper Munich, Ernesto Don Pasquale at Netherlands Opera, Pedrillo Die Entführung aus dem Serail at La Monnaie Brussels and San Francisco Opera, Mime Siegfried for Flanders Opera, Loge Rheingold in Stuttgart, Herod Salome at Flanders Opera and Frankfurt, Laca Jenufa and Bajazet Tamerlano at the Komische Oper Berlin and Dr.Caius Falstaff at the Chatelet Paris.
