Gregory Schmidt – Prologue & Peter Quints Wisconsin native Gregory Schmidt’s unusually beautiful voice and commanding stage presence have brought him consistent critical acclaim. “Gregory Schmidt [exhibits] bright and accurate sound, charged with genuine emotion...combining credible acting with elegant style” wrote Jess Anderson for Opera News. “Schmidt might be the finest tenor ever to tread the Skylight (Opera Theater) stage,” enthused Tom Strini of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Recent engagements for the tenor include Bianchini in Anton Coppola’s Sacco and Vanzetti, Rodolfo in La Boheme and Count Almaviva in Il Barbiere di Siviglia all with Opera Tampa; Don Ramiro in La Cenerentola with Fresno Grand Opera; Tebaldo in I Capuleti e i Montecchi and Nemorino in L’elisir d’amore with Tulsa Opera; and Alfredo in La Traviata with Des Moines Metro Opera.
