Lauded for his "big, heroic voice" (LA Weekly) and "powerful emotions", tenor Dane Suarez has developed an exciting and varied career.
Last season, Dane added three major role debuts to his repertoire: the title role in Andrea Chénier at OperaDelaware, Radamès in Aida at Opera Southwest, and Giovanni in La hija de Rappaccini at Opera Columbus. He also made his house debut at Utah Festival Opera in his fifth production as Antonin Scalia in Scalia/Ginsburg, closing out the season there as Richard Henry Lee in 1776. Other engagements included Don José in Carmen with the New Jersey Festival Orchestra, Canio in Pagliacci at OperaDelaware, and a masterclass and recital at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, plus two original OperaDelaware programs he designed and performed in, OperaDeathmatch and Stayin' Alive. In the 2024/25 season, Suarez made his acclaimed European debut at Wexford Festival Opera as Don Ferolo Whiskerandos in the revival of Charles Villiers Stanford's The Critic and took the mainstage of the National Opera House for a solo recital.
