David Maze's Swiss debut as Valentin in St. Gallen's production of Faust was reviewed in Zürich's daily Das Bund as «The Journey to eastern Switzerland was worth it only because of David Maze's superior, baritonally rich Valentin». Other roles in Switzerland last season for the American baritone include Ibn-Hakia in Tchaikovsky's Iolanthe and Taddeo in L'italiana in Algeri. In 1997/8 David Maze made his Italian debut as Wolfram in Tannhäuser at the Teatro Massimo in Palermo. He opened the 1998/9 season as Sharpless in Salzburg, returned to St. Gallen as Figaro in Il barbiere di Siviglia and returned to the National Orchestra of Mexico for Mahler's 8th Symphony. |
From his operatic debut with the Texas Opera Theater in 1986 when, due to a last minute cancellation, he was called to perform the role of Marcello, Baritone David Maze has sung major roles with more than 20 American Opera companies. He made his European debut in 1993 at Paris Opera-Comique as Harlequin in Ariadne auf Naxos. |
David Maze has brought his acclaimed Marcello to the Virginia Opera, OperaDelaware, The Houston Grand Opera's Miller Park series and Opera Memphis, which marked his 50th performance of La Bohème. Of his opening night performance in Richmond, John McKay of the Richmond Times-Dispatch wrote: «Maze here projected a resonant, powerful voice with flawless intonation». David Maze first appeared at the Sarasota Opera as Sonora in La fanciulla del west and Mercutio in Roméo et Juliette. He was most recently heard in Sarasota as Papageno in Die Zauberflöte. A favorite artist of the Virginia Opera, he has sung Marcello, Valentin in Faust, Guglielmo in Così fan tutte and Germont in La traviata.
