Recent appearances include performances with the Gamut Bach Ensemble, Brownsville Center of the Performing Arts, University Musical Society, Brooklyn Art Song Society, and New York Festival of Song. In the spring of 2020 Daniel joined the Mirror Visions Ensemble, with whom he now appears regularly. Summer 2021 was Daniel’s second season in residence at the Marlboro Music Festival. Recent operatic appearances include Harlekin in Ullman’s Der Kaiser von Atlantis, and the title roles in Bernstein’s Candide and Charpentier’s La descente d'Orphée aux enfers, each at the University of Michigan and under the direction of Matthew Ozawa. As part of the Tanglewood Music Center’s celebration of the Bernstein centennial, Daniel performed François in A Quiet Place, directed by Peter Kazaras. Additional highlights include title roles in Britten’s Albert Herring and Monteverdi’s L’Orfeo, Contino Belfiore in Mozart’s La finta giardiniera, Ecclitico in Haydn’s Il mondo della luna, and Toquemada in Ravel’s L’heure Espagnole, all at the Oberlin Conservatory. Also at Tanglewood, Daniel received mentorship from Dawn Upshaw, Sanford Sylvan and Stephanie Blythe, culminating in performances of Britten’s Les illuminations, sacred works of Heirich Schütz, Schubert ensembles with Emmanuel Ax, and, for the Festival of Contemporary Music, Kurtág’s Three Ancient Inscriptions. On his performance of those songs, the Boston Globe lauded Daniel’s “viciously beautiful timbre;” Classical Scene praised his “intense concentration,… clarity, and ferocity.” Additional performances of new music include the role of Jesus in the premier of Robert Kyr’s oratorio, Transfiguration, with Yale Camerata, Reena Esmail’s This Love Between Us, with Yale Schola Cantorum and Juilliard415, and upcoming performances of songs written for him and pianist Nathaniel LaNasa by Guggenheim Fellow, Matthew Ricketts. Daniel performed in the symphonic premier of James Lapine’s revue, Sondheim on Sondheim, with the Boston Pops Orchestra. He later joined Kate Baldwin, Liz Calloway, and other Broadway actors in David Loud’s, A Good Thing Going, for which his “most beautiful, longing-imbued tenor” was celebrated as “a find!” (Woman Around Town). An early music specialist, Daniel has performed Bach with conductors including Matthew Halls, John Harbison, David Hill, Kenneth Slowik, and Masaaki Suzuki, including a one-on-a-part B Minor Mass at the Oberlin Baroque Performance Institute. As a soloist with Yale’s Schola Cantorum, he appeared in Bach’s Mass in A Major at Alice Tully Hall, Arvo Pärt’s Passio in performances throughout Russia and the Baltic region, Bach’s Magnificat throughout India, and the Monteverdi Vespers 1610 and Händel’s Occasional Oratorio in New York and New Haven. He twice attended the Bach Institute at Emmanuel Music in Boston, and is currently involved in Collaborative Arts Ensemble’s Bach Project, set to tour in the spring of 2020. Daniel is deeply committed to recital performance and the art of song—he very recently joined the Five Boroughs Music Festival and Brooklyn Art Song Society to present a complete cycle of Wolf’s Mörike Liederbuch with Martin Katz. He attended the 2019 Fall Island Vocal Seminar, performing the songs of living American composers. Daniel holds degrees from Oberlin Conservatory and Yale University; in the spring of 2020 he completed his doctorate at the University of Michigan. He is a committed teacher and pedagogue, having taught studio voice, lyric dictions, and music history at University of Michigan, Oberlin Conservatory, Bowling Green State University, and Adrian College. He currently maintains a private studio in Stamford, Connecticut.
