About this Artist
Canadian tenor ADAM FISHER is rapidly gaining
attention for his
charismatic stage
presence in a wide
range of repertoire.
Critics hailed his
debut as Pedrillo
in Opera Atelier’s
production of Mozart’s Abduction from the
Seraglio, and his performance in City Opera
Vancouver’s world premiere of Margaret Atwood
and Tobin Stokes’ opera Pauline drew
critical acclaim.
A graduate of the University of British
Columbia, Adam joined the Emerging Artists
Program with Calgary Opera in 2010 and
was later invited to the Music Academy of
the West, leading the cast as Tom Rakewell
in Stravinsky’s The Rake’s Progress. He is a
frequent guest artist with Toronto’s Voicebox:
Opera in Concert and Toronto Operetta
Theatre, where he charmed audiences as
Raoul in La vie parisienne and Count Gustav
in Lehár’s Land of Smiles. He celebrated a
Viennese New Year with Victoria Symphony
Orchestra in an evening of operetta
favorites.
Oratorio and concert performances
include Handel’s Messiah with National
Arts Centre Orchestra and Toronto’s Aradia
Ensemble, Britten’s Serenade for Tenor, Horn,
and Strings with Ottawa’s Thirteen Strings,
and Mendelssohn’s Elijah with Vancouver
Bach Choir. He is equally at home in the music
of Broadway: Adam’s versatility ranges
from his powerful portrayal of the title role
in Jesus Christ Superstar at Westben Arts
Festival to Lieutenant Cable in South Pacific
with Pacific Opera Victoria.
Upcoming performances for this multitalented
singer include Rolf in The Sound of
Music with Opera on the Avalon and Father
Alexander in the world premiere of Oksana
G with Tapestry New Opera.
