Crafts as a “…bold arresting tenor… with a shining lyricism.”  Having studied under such singers as Medea Namoradze-Ruhadze\, noted Georgian soprano\, and under Professor Leslie Umphrey at the University of New Mexico\, he has performed in concert and opera productions playing the roles of Javier in Luisa Fernanda\, Tamino in Die Zauberflöte\, Canio in I’Pagliacci\, Pinkerton in Madama Butterfly\, Don Jose in Bizet’s Carmen\, Edgar in Puccini’s Edgar\, Roberto in Puccini’s Le Villi\, and Opera Southwest’s revival debut of Franco Faccio’s Amleto playing the role of Laerte.  Notably\, Mr. Gonzalez has performed with world-renowned tenor Placido Domingo on the Kennedy Center opera stage and has also performed on the stage of Carnegie Hall in New York City under the baton of world-renowned composer John Rutter. \n\n\n\nJoin us for an experience you’ll never forget!  With special guests Christal Roundtree\, Molly Sunderhaus\, and Vivian Aldrete\, this stupendous cast is sure to delight the senses and awaken the soul.  There is something for everyone to enjoy!  With one night only\, you won’t want to miss this once in a lifetime event!
