Ingpen & Williams International Artists' Management, founded in London in 1946,〔 is a British classical music talent management agency. It is named for founders Joan Ingpen and her dog Williams, a dachshund.〔 Ingpen, conductor Georg Solti's agent during the 1950s,〔 became artistic administrator of the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden in 1961 at Solti's request,〔〔 after which Ingpen & Williams was managed by Howard Hartog,〔〔 editor of ''European Music in the Twentieth Century.''〔 It was Joan Ingpen who put lyric tenor Luciano Pavarotti on the international opera map in 1963.〔〔〔 She hired him to cover for the role of Rodolfo in ''La bohème'' in the event that Giuseppe Di Stefano was unable to perform.
