SUMMARY:Recital: Stephen Costello\, tenor with Anthony Manoli\, piano
DESCRIPTION:Stephen Costello has been hailed as ‘a prodigiously gifted singer whose voice makes an immediate impact’ (Associated Press). The Philadelphia-born tenor quickly established a reputation as a ‘first-class talent’ (Opera News) after coming to national attention in 2007\, when\, aged 26\, he made his Metropolitan Opera debut on the company’s season-opening night. Two years later\, Stephen won the prestigious Richard Tucker Award\, and he has since appeared at many of the world’s most important opera houses and music festivals. Opera News noted in a recent double-page spread\, “the all-American tenor” is now “at the top of his game.” This recital program will feature an enthralling mix of both songs and arias. \n  \nClick Here For Tickets
