Gregory Dahl, bass

Performs Handel’s Messiah

This Saturday! 7 p.m. at The VETS, Providence


Background:  From Winnepeg, Manitoba. Taught choral music in Winnepeg before becoming a full-time performer.



Recent Highlights:

  • Debut in the title role of Der Fliegende Holländer in a new production for Opéra de Québec.


  • Appeared as Hermogines in the world premiere of Rufus Wainwright’s second opera Hadrian with the Canadian Opera Company.


  • Reprised the title role in Rigoletto for Calgary Opera

Critical Praise:

  • “Dahl, who plays the malicious fool and protective father in the first act, is profoundly moving in the two following acts. With his compelling acting he renders Rigoletto into a touching and deeply human character” — Rigoletto, Opéra de Québec from Opera News Magazine


  • “Canadian Baritone Gregory Dahl was impeccable in the role of the underhand Scarpia. Manipulator at will, master of intrigues, he completely dominated the scene.”— Tosca, Opéra de Montréal from Le Journal de Montreal



  • “Dahl stormed the stage like a powder-keg ready to blow, barely containing his fury during Act II’s explosive E sogno? O realta.” — Falstaff, Manitoba Opera from Winnipegfreepress.com
