eric s. brenner - countertenor
Picture

Hailed for his “astonishing solo singing” and “penetrating eloquence” (New York Times), countertenor Eric S. Brenner made his solo debut in Bernstein’s Chichester Psalms at Cornell University.  He has sung the work many times since then, including performances at Carnegie Hall, Avery Fisher Hall, at St. Thomas Church Fifth Avenue, St. Ignatius Loyola with Sacred Music in a Sacred Space, & in a New Year's Eve concert for peace at St John the Divine.  Eric is grateful to have opportunities to perform across a broad spectrum of repertoire - from baroque opera & oratorio, to world premieres by several of today's preeminent composers.  [CONTINUED ON BIO PAGE]
