Julian will be awarded Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE).

He made his debut with Welsh National Opera as Guglielmo (Così fan tutte) and has since appeared in more than sixty operatic roles. He has given performances at major venues in North and South America, Australia, China, India, and most European countries. He frequently records for BBC Radio 3 and has made many commercial recordings, including more than ten solo discs of songs.
