An “immaculate and inventive recitalist” (The New Yorker), he made his Wigmore Hall début last year, and has appeared in recital throughout the world. His portrayal of Prior Walter in the North American première of Peter Eötvös’s Angels in America with Opera Boston was described as “immensely touching” (Boston Globe), and he recently created the title rôle in Gordon Chin’s Mackay: The Black Bearded Bible Man in Taipei. Other opera performances include Chou En-lai in Nixon in China with Opera Boston. He is a graduate of Grinnell College and the Eastman School of Music.
