“Few singers today command the sheet beauty of timbre and dynamic control of Matthew Polenzani”
—Opera News
“Mr. Polenzani had it all: refinement,, sweep, passion, and power.”
—The New York Times
American Matthew Polenzani is one of the most gifted and distinguished lyric tenors of his generation. His elegant musicianship, innate sense of style, and dramatic commitment find him at the largest and most prestigious operatic, concert, and recital venues in the world. He comes to the Armory with a program of lieder and art songs that offer audiences the chance to get to know the beauty of his sound, the musicality of his legato, the suppleness of his phrasing, and the clarity of his diction in one of the only spaces that could provide such a personal encounter—the Board of Officers Room.
Program to include works by Schubert, Finzi, Schumann, and Ives
The Recital Series is supported in part by the Howard & Sarah D. Solomon Foundation
Public support is provided by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Kathy Hochul and the New York State Legislature.
