Internationally-acclaimed tenor Ronald Naldi will celebrate his 50th anniversary season, with a special solo recital at the Bishop Janes Tabernacle. Naldi will perform works by Grieg, Rachmaninov, Hageman, Youmans, Foster, plus early Italian and Neapolitan songs accompanied by esteemed jazz/classical pianist Sean Gough. During his extraordinary career, he brought his art to the stages around the world, including the Metropolitan Opera, Verona Opera, Opera da Camera of Rome, L’Opera Francais, New Jersey State Opera, Lyric Opera of Chicago, and the Salzburger Landestheater, to name a few. For 30 years, he performed at the Met, where he sang 347 times in 23 different operas including three Met premieres, five world premieres and the American premieres of three other operas, no doubt one of longest tenures of any opera singer on the Met roster.
