Welcome to Seattle Center
Tenor Freddie Ballentine and Pianist Kunal Lahiry
Fresh off his “captivating” (Bachtrack) performance as Loge in our 2023 Das Rheingold, Freddie Ballentine (Das Rheingold ’23, Charlie Parker’s Yardbird ’20, Carmen ’19) returns to Seattle Opera for a one-night-only concert. One of America’s leading tenors and the 2021 winner of the Kennedy Center’s Marian Anderson Award, Ballentine has rocketed to the top stages of the world with performances at the Metropolitan Opera, English National Opera, and Washington National Opera this year alone.
A “glowing tenor” (Opera Today) who gives a “superb performance” (Washington Classical Review) is joined by pianist Kunal Lahiry for a program featuring a variety of musical genres that will bring Seattle audiences to their feet.
