Bryce Smith is a young bass hailing from Mississippi. He has been a resident artist with Opera Colorado, Central City Opera, Dicapo Opera Theatre, Natchez Festival of Music and Tulane Summer Lyric Theatre. In 2004, he made his professional concert debut with Händel’s Messiah at Carnegie Hall.
New Orleans’ The Times-Picayune proclaims, “Bryce Smith’s resounding bass makes him a force….” The Cape Cod Times raves, “Tall and aristocratic with a vibrant voice to match, Bryce Smith was prepossessing as the jealous Baron Duphoul….” He has received many awards from companies such as the Mobile Opera Guild, Denver Lyric Opera Guild and Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions.
Smith’s newest project is the SM Opera Company. This company, which is still in its planning stages, was born out of the frustration that young singers typically feel about pay-to-sing programs. Because “starving artists” normally worry more about paying rent than making music, it will provide much needed support and performance opportunities to young emerging professionals, at that very crucial stage in their career, free of charge. For performance dates and information on how you can help, please visit www.smoperaco.org.
This season, Mr. Smith will be seen in concert throughout Colorado, Mississippi and the New Orleans area and in performances with Dicapo Opera Theatre and SM Opera Company.
Smith most recently sang on the Inaugural Dinner of the Horatio Alger Association of Distinguished Americans at Andrew Mellon Auditorium in Washington, D.C. with the Capital Symphony Orchestra. He will next appear singing the National Anthem on the Mall for the Susan G. Komen Foundation's National Race for the Cure.
