Ric Furman
A vibrant and powerful tenor voice in combination with an electrifying stage presence has earned Ric Furmana solid standing as one of the world’s emerging dramatic tenors. He made his Seattle Opera debut singing the role of Florestan FIDELIO where he earned international acclaim “with a mellifluous tone … he demonstrated a much more beguiling sense of dynamic shading, and he was thoroughly compelling in his evocation first of utter despair and eventually of exultant joy.” (Seen and Heard International). He was invited back to Seattle Opera for the DER RING DES NIBELUNGEN, earning praise for his “sweet toned” (Opera News) and “clarion-voiced” (Pacific Aisle) Froh. Upcoming engagements include Siegmund DIE WALKUERE for Theater Magdeburg, Erik DER FLIEGENDE HOLLÄNDER for Hessisches Staatstheater Wiesbaden and Boris KAT’A KABANOVA for Scottish Opera.
Additional credits include Narraboth SALOME with Portland Opera, Bacchus ARIADNE AUF NAXOS for Virginia Opera, Rinuccio GIANNI SCHICCHI for Pittsburgh Opera, Augustin Moser DIE MEISTERSINGER VON NUERNBERG with Cincinnati Opera and Tristan TRISTAN UND ISOLDE for the Wagner Society of Cincinnati.
