He was featured with Orchestra of St. Luke’s and Musica Sacra at Carnegie Hall in March 2013 in Bach’s St. Matthew Passion, and he joined the Colorado Symphony in December 2012 for Handel’s Messiah. Other recent highlights are Bach’s St. John Passion (bass soloist and Pilate) at New York’s St. Thomas Church; Princeton Glee Club (Fauré’s Requiem and Vaughan Williams’s Five Mystical Songs); and Bach Collegium San Diego (Mozart’s Requiem and St. John Passion).
Recent recitals with pianist Yegor Shevtsov include a southern tour with performances on the Macon Concert Series and Clemson University’s Utsey Chamber Music Series at the Brooks Center for the Performing Arts, as well as the Baldwin-Wallace Art Song Festival, Trinity Church’s “Concerts at One,” and the Music Room at the Lindberg Farm.
