Praised by Opera News for “high notes with ease, singing with a luxuriant warm glow that seduced the ear as he bounded about the stage with abandon,” American tenor David Portillo has established himself as a leading classical singer of his generation.
Vocal Arts DC (VADC) presents classically-trained singers and pianists in Washington, DC, at The Kennedy Center and in educational events. Performing acoustically, our world-class musicians showcase a wide range of the greatest song literature, including newly-composed commissions. Founded in 1990 as The Vocal Arts Society by Dr. Gerald Perman, the modest first season featured Renée Fleming and recitals at the French Embassy’s Maison Française. Today VADC includes an annual subscription concert series, online content, master classes, and a vocal competition providing scholarships.
