Albert Lee, a 1993-1994 New Haven Chorale Student Singer, continued on to Julliard and is now a substantial musical force in his own right with gospel, lieder, oratorios, and opera. During the 2005-2007 seasons he appeared as artist-in-residence at The Palm Beach Opera--and has also sung with The Opera Theater of Pittsburgh, Opera Theater of St. Louis, Opera Providence, Kentucky Opera, Connecticut Center Opera, and the Berkshire Opera Company--in title roles from Tamino in Mozart’s The Magic Flute to Goro in Puccini’s Madame Butterfly and Alfredo in Verdi’s

La Traviata. He has also appeared with the Bach Choir of Pittsburgh, the St. Luke’s Chamber Orchestra, New York’s Collegiate Chorale, the Pro Arts Symphony, and the Missouri Symphony, as well as touring internationally with The American Spiritual Ensemble and performing at the Aspen Festival and Europe’s Caramoor Festival. A versatile and award-winning performer, Mr. Lee is acclaimed as a rising star who “sings with great style and musicality” and delivers “musically distinctive,” “vocally sumptuous,” and “acrobatically agile” performances. Mr. Lee last appeared as tenor soloist with The New Haven Chorale several years ago in their unforgettable “Songs of the Journey” concert with The Heritage Chorale, where he electrified a full-house audience in Woolsey Hall.
