Patrick also recently sang with Opera Birmingham, originating the role of Peter Fagan in the world premier of Carla Lucero and Marianna Mott Newirth’s opera, Touch, portraying the life of Helen Keller. He also joined Opera San Jose performing the role of Count Almaviva in Il barbiere di Siviglia.

Next, Patrick is covering the role of Léonard in Catapult Opera’s newly commissioned orchestration of Nadia Boulanger’s La ville morte, as well as singing Tonio in Opera Company of Middlebury’s upcoming production of La fille du régiment.

During the ‘22-’23 season, Patrick was a Baumgartner studio artist with The Florentine Opera where he performed the roles of Tybalt in Roméo et Juliette and Ferrando in Così fan tutte: Remix. He also covered and stepped on for the final dress rehearsal and both weekend performances of Il barbiere di Siviglia as Count Almaviva, singing “beautifully … with poise, precision, great facility and finesse, and a sterling tenor sound … giving a performance that never crossed the footlights as a last-minute casting change” (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel).

In the summer of ‘22, Patrick was a Gerdine Young Artist at Opera Theatre of St. Louis. He was a cover and stepped in on four performances as Remendado in Carmen, among other cover and comprimario roles.

Patrick has also gained valuable experience at Seagle Music Festival as well as Marlboro Music Festival, where he discovered his affinity for vocal chamber music.

At the University of Colorado, Patrick earned his B.M. in Vocal Performance and studied with tenor Matthew Chellis. He performed many roles on the Macky stage, including Bénédict in Béatrice et Bénédict, George Bailey in It’s a Wonderful Life, and Tony in West Side Story, among others. 

After CU, Patrick earned his M.M. in Vocal Arts from The Juilliard School. He studied with tenor William Burden and gained more invaluable performance experience, including Acis in Acis and Galatea, Tom Rakewell in The Rake’s Progress, and Fenton in Die Lustigen Weiber von Windsor, among others.

Patrick is managed by Robert Mirshak and Mirshak Artists Management.

Patrick has been a hard worker from a young age. Through grade school and high school, he started and managed a lawn service venture while balancing sports and school. The work ethic and collaborative skills he learned at that age have propelled him into his music career.

When he’s not working, Patrick enjoys spending time with friends and family. He is always looking for an excuse to go back to Colorado and ski. He loves cooking, sports, running, picking the guitar, and telling or listening to a good story.
