Will they be live-streaming the summer stage show at all? I’d love to watch!
Have a fabulous concert!! Can’t wait to finally be back in that building in a month.
Waiting for you to return in concert to UND.
I enjoy witnessing the cleaning of the chandeliers!
Bravo, Paul! And Will Liverman and Bryan Wagorn and Leah Hawkins! đđđŸđ¶

Great to see and hear you perform live. Caught the live-stream from Chautauqua. Particularly enjoyed hearing you sing New York Lights once again, but all sounded great. Looking forward to seeing Meistersinger in Oct. Stay safe. Joe and Toni
Toi toi toi! Have a wonderful show! I am so sad that I'm leaving town tomorrow and will be missing this-- Met in the Parks is one of my most favorite things about NYC Summers!
So happy for you and everyone!
I am sure it was a great show Paul. I surely would have come but I had a concert of my own--Salute to Mexico--in my home. You were on my mind. Once you were a "young singer"; I hope my "young singers" will also achieve success. It is a difficult path to choose in life but you caught the gold ring.
Break a leg as they say
Woo hoo!
So much fun to be back singing on the @metopera stage with my friends in the @metorchestra and @metoperachorus !! Looking forward to our opening performance of MEISTERSINGER on October 26.

Somehow Wu Han and I kept our cool despite the record temperature for our outdoor Winterreise. Big thanks to @schubertclub and their dedicated audience for sticking with us through sticky weather!
When these cool 3D models of composers came out a while back a number of people told me I looked like the young Brahms so I had to make a photo comparison while I still had my 19th century coif. (And I threw in my mustache headshot for good measure...miss that mustache :âą|))
Thanks to my friends at @nyfestivalofsong for letting me contribute to The Song of the Day blog this past week. I was grateful for the artistic outlet and hope you listen to the songs about the moon I picked. Link to the blog in my bio. âą

Tune it. I loved being David. He might get a little over-enthusiastic at times but he sure loves singing and melodies and training to be a Meistersinger. Iâm looking forward to revisiting this classic production, and especially will be thinking with admiration and sadness of the great Walter, Johan Botha who taught me a lot about singing Wagner. RIP JB.
Some good news! @runningamoc has been named the @ojaifestivals Music Director for its 2022 festival!
#TBT to âGirls of the Golden Westâ at @sfopera. Iâm looking forward to reprising the role of Joe Cannon next season with the @laphil!
#TuesdayTune: Take a listen to âDear Theoâ, a song cycle by Ben Moore, released on Delos Music in 2014. I collaborated on this album with Brett Polegato, @sopranosusannaphillips, and Brian Zeger. The album also features two other song cycles by Moore.
#tbt Remembering the time I sang the title tole in Bernsteinâs âCandideâ at @carnegiehall in April 2018. đ·: @chrisleephotonyc

Tonight is my last performance of âThe Magic Fluteâ with @teatro_real!
I didnât get out and about in Madrid as much as I would have liked for this trip to the beautiful @teatro_real, but Iâm so glad I got this amazing taste of Spanish culture: ÂĄFlamenco! Such amazing dancers and musicians! Truly fierce! Thanks to my high school drama teacher #NaomiUnger for taking for coming all the way from Vienna to see my Tamino, and for taking me to @las_tablas âą
