Hailed as “one of the most renowned Dutch singers” (Volkskrant), Thomas Oliemans has been taking the opera world by storm with his dynamic vocal color and communicative singing style at major opera houses and festivals throughout Europe, including Dutch National Opera, Royal Opera House Covent Garden, Teatro Real, and the Festival d’Aix-en-Provence and Salzburg Festival. He brings his burnished baritone across the Atlantic to make his U.S. recital debut in an artfully curated program of lieder and arts songs from the late Romantic period.
