Upcoming opera stars: tenor Choong Lee

With a timbre likened to that of Jussi Bjorling, Tenor Choong Lee has exhibited versatility and growth in several performances at Prelude to Performance, including such roles as Hoffmann in Les contes d’Hoffmann, Riccardo in Un Ballo in Maschera, and Alfred in Die Fledermaus. Opera News noted that he has “real humor on stage.” Upon awarding him the Teresa Stratas Special Award at the Lotte Lenya Compeition, the soprano praised his superb vocal quality as a “gift from God.” In April, he was tenor soloist in Beethoven’s 9th Symphony at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, and in May he was invited to the Natchez Festival of Music.
