Dorian McCall

Dorian McCall, bass-baritone, has been mentioned by the New York Times for “his rich lows” and by Musical America as “[benefitting] from his freely produced bass-baritone and his winning stage presence.” Noted for his vibrant and robust timbre, the dexterity of McCall’s instrument also lends itself well to Baroque and Bel Canto.

Hot on the heels of a charged reception at Teatro Nuovo as Fabrizio in Ricci’s Crispino e la comare, this season has included a return to Haymarket Opera and their production of La liberazione di Ruggiero dall’isola d’Alcina, Gilbert and Sullivan of Chicago’s Ruddigore, and Cedar Rapids Opera as Resident Teaching Artist as well as a premier on their stage as Angelotti in Puccini’s Tosca. Concert work included a premier with Chicago Chamber Choir as soloist for Brahms’ Ein deutsches Requiem and a debut with Handel Choir of Baltimore (Messiah).

Stay tuned to @finally_Dorian for news regarding recitals and cabarets in the Chicagoland area; He is excited to contribute to the rich artistic landscape on his own terms! He has performed for several seasons with the Chicago Symphony, Lyric Opera of Chicago, Music of the Baroque, and Grant Park Music Festival choruses and currently studies with mezzo-soprano Victoria Livengood.
