A long-standing favorite with audiences at the Opéra Bastille, the Canadian baritone has appeared there in a wide range of roles, including Don Giovanni, Rigoletto, Rodrigue (Don Carlos), Conte di Luna (Il trovatore), and Sancho (Don Quichotte), among others. Earlier this season, he earned rave reviews for his debut as Simon Boccanegra at the Deutsche Oper Berlin.
