In short

Kyle Ketelsen is an American bass-baritone, a low male singing voice that can be both dark and agile, who has sung at the Metropolitan Opera and other major houses. He is listed as a soloist with the Madison Symphony Orchestra in Madison, Wisconsin, on April 9 to 11, 2027, in a program with Wagner, Tchaikovsky and Gendel.

What to listen for

Listen for a voice at home in operatic roles, where words and drama carry as much weight as tone. The Madison program includes Wagner's Tristan und Isolde and Gendel's choral symphony Spacious Skies, both music that asks singers to project over a large orchestra. Our listing does not say which piece he sings, so check the orchestra's page for details.
