Christopher Dunham is a native of Niagara Falls, Ontario and has captivated audiences with his “Vocally powerful and dramatic” (Opera Magazine Canada) baritone voice across Canada and as far away as the Adriatic coast of Italy. Hailed by Opera Canada Magazine as “Possessed of an enormous baritone voice that he used with great musicality and intelligence, he proved he could not only sing like a god but act brilliantly, dance, and play the guitar…” A recent graduate from L’Atelier Lyrique de L’Opera de Monreal and Atlanta Opera’s Young Artist Residency, Christopher is equally comfortable in concert, recital and on the main stage. Some of his roles include: Figaro in The Barber of Seville (Brott Opera), Mercutio in Romeo et Juliette (Jeunesse Musical Canada), Escamillo in Carmen (Windsor Symphony), Don Giovanni, Eisenstein in Die Fledermaus (Western University), Dandini in La Cenerentola (La Musica Lyrica) Germont in la Traviata (Jeunesse Musicals Canada), Schaunard in puccini’s la Bohème (L’Opera de Montreal). A recipient and winner of the Desmarais Development Bursary two years in a row and the Jeunesse Musicals Canada’s Young Mentorship position, Christopher has been seen this season with Pacific Opera Victoria, singing Argante in Handel’s Rinaldo, with the Atlanta Opera singing corporal in Donizetti’s la Fille du Regiment and next season as Marcelo in Boheme with the MIssissauga Symphony Orchestra, In the titular role of Don Giovanni with Southern Ontario Lyric Opera, also as Escamillo in Carmen with L’Opera de Montreal. With this and many more things to come, Christopher is a young Canadian baritone who has already begun to make a name for himself and promises to have a flourishing career.
