Brahms German Requiem

 ******************************************************

Michael Robert-Broder, baritone – A native of Vancouver, Michael Robert-Broder quickly established himself as one of Canada's most versatile young baritones. Equally at home with art song, oratorio, and opera, he has gained a reputation for engaging performances that perfectly join poet’s text with composer’s music, with the dramatic essence of a piece. Recent oratorio performances include Requiems by Mozart, Fauré, Duruflé, and Willan, Bach’s B-minor Mass, Vaughan William’s Serenade to Music, and Walton’s Belshazzar’s Feast. 

On the lyric stage Robert-Broder has portrayed the roles of Lescaut (Manon), Papageno and Sprecher (Die Zauberflöte), Ben (The Telephone), and Bob (The Old Maid and the Thief. Michael’s principle training has been under the guidance of Bruce Pullan, Gary Relyea, and François le Roux.  Upcoming engagements include Donizetti's Don Pasquale and L'elisir d'amore, Bach's Johannes-Passion, Schubert's Schwanengesang and Die Schöne Müllerin, Handel’s Athalia and several recitals of German, French and American Cabaret music.
