​FRANCIS ROGERS, tenor

Tenor Fran Rogers’s recent opera credits include Puck in the world premiere of Scott Wheeler’s Midsummer, Don Jose in The Tragedy of Carmen, Venditore Ambulante in Puccini’s La Boheme (concert performance with the Boston Symphony Orchestra at Tanglewood), Rodolfo in Puccini’s La Boheme, Art in Solitro’s Triangle (world premiere), Dos Senores in I Am Easily Assimilated from Bernstein’s Candide (concert performance with Frederica von Stade and the Boston Symphony Orchestra), Ruggero in Puccini’s La Rondine, Danceny in Susa’s The Dangerous Liaisons, and Ramiro in Rossini's La Cenerentola.

Fran made his Boston Symphony Hall solo debut performing a collection of songs by Pavel Haas and Gideon Klein at the Terezín Music Foundation 2019 Gala. He is a regular national anthem soloist for Boston sports teams including the Celtics, Red Sox, and Patriots, having performed on multiple occasions for live audiences of up to 70,000 and international television audiences of up to fourteen million.

Fran has been critically acclaimed for his “luscious tenor voice that stole the show every time he opened his mouth,” his “open, free, and effortless high notes,” and his “athleticism,” and “raw strength and natural timbre.” He studies under soprano Deborah Voigt and baritone Mark Oswald.
