He will also join Haymarket Opera for Artabano in Vinci’s Artaserse, to be recorded commercially. In concert he will make his Minnesota Orchestra debut as the tenor soloist in Mozart’s Requiem with Music Director Thomas Søndergård conducting. Future projects include returns to the Metropolitan Opera, the Houston Grand Opera, Pesaro’s Rossini Opera Festival, and debuts at the Opéra National de Paris and the Grand Théâtre de Genève.
Last season Mr. Swanson made some extremely successful debuts with the Lyric Opera of Chicago as Don Ramiro in La Cenerentola, with the Houston Grand Opera as Fenton in Falstaff and the Arena di Verona as Almaviva in Il Barbiere di Siviglia. He returned to the Norwegian Opera for Ferrando in Così Fan Tutte and Don Ramiro in La Cenerentola, as well as to the Rossini Opera Festival in Pesaro for Almaviva in Il Barbiere di Siviglia and Count Belfiore in Il Viaggio a Reims (a role debut). Mr. Swanson was also heard in concert at the Festival de Paris and in recital in Montreal and with the Sag Harbor Song Festival.

of Jack Swanson in the titular role of Candide. Swanson brings the naivety and charm of a young, out-of-place, illegitimate raised by royalty, the Baron and Baroness of Westphalia. His strong solos include "It Must Be So," "Candide's Lament," and "Nothing More Than This."
