    Lyric Tenor

    Reviews

    Nathan Granner was a winning & worthy Chips, credible at every age, conveying his emotions with a stirring tenor of equal parts metal and warmth. He projected strength, dignity, compassion, and joy.

    Granner's poignant tenor expresses Rob Hall's adventurous spirit, his sense of responsibility... and his love for Jan.

    Nathan Granner was a revelation as Dr. Morel, lavishing his every phrase with an effortlessly produced lyric tenor that had substantial, gold-infused weight. Mr. Granner was fearlessly accurate in his easy execution of passages lying so high they threatened to live where only dogs can hear.

    A gorgeous and beautifully sung production featuring some of the most exciting performances we've seen from the company. Nathan Granner's electrifying Rodolfo occupied the center of the show's Parisian universe.

    Nathan Granner wowed with tons of squillo on his top notes, honey tone, and sensitive dynamic choices, especially during 'Che gelida manina'. His angst-filled facial expressions tugged at the heartstrings.

    The strongest leg of this triangle was tenor Nathan Granner's superb performance as Jacopo. His voice, full of potent fiber and feeling from top to bottom, captured both suffering and the 'sweet hope' of aspiration.
    Steven Winn, San Francisco Classical Voice
    With his high, ethereal tenor, Nathan Granner conveys megalomaniacal suave as the Prospero-like inventor Morel.

    Nathan Granner sang wonderfully.
    Anthony Tommasini, New York Times
    His voice is vibrant and flexible, and he sings with fire.

    Granner possesses utter control of a ravishing mixed head sound.

    Nathan Granner is my favorite kind of tenor. His voice is rich and versatile–nothing short of magical. He surprises his listeners and delights them–perpetually–making each phrase his own. His control is extraordinary.

    I — boiled over with love for Nathan Granner... blessed with a commanding personality and a rich, resonant voice... his control and finesse, the emotional logic with which he paces his solos.
    Alan Scherstuhl, The Pitch Weekly
    Tenor Nathan Granner as the 55 year-old Bobby Riggs, in an equal tour de force performance — Mr. Granner excelled at tennis' drop shot, while never dropping a word.
    Michael Milenski, Opera Today
    Nathan Granner, who created the role of the dapper scientist in Chicago, gives a commanding performance here.
    Jim Farber, San Francisco Classical Voice
    Tenor Nathan Granner, who also appears in the movie version, is brilliant in the title role.
    Musical America
    Nathan Granner leaves one breathless with his unique, heroic lyricism and natural demeanor... Nathan's version of 'If I Loved You' is the best recording of that song you will ever find.

    Once in my life, at some point I'd like to do something as beautiful as that.
    Steve Kraske, "Up to Date", KCUR 89.3
    Each syllable emerged as round, smooth and solid as a polished stone, less sung than sculpted in the media of voice and heartache.
