Marking HCMC's 300th regular season concert in our 30 year history, we present renowned vocalist, Kenneth Overton, lauded for blending his opulent baritone with magnetic, varied portrayals that seemingly “emanate from deep within body and soul.” Mr. Overton’s symphonious baritone voice has sent him around the globe, making him one of the most sought-after opera singers of his generation. He is a 2020 GRAMMY award winner for Best Choral Performance in the title role of Richard Danielpour’s 'The Passion of Yeshua' with the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra and Chorus, conducted by JoAnn Falletta.
Mr. Overton’s program for us is a celebration of American Music, including spirituals, classical art songs and selections from The Great American Songbook.
