Ron Stauffer - Lyric Tenor
Ron Stauffer is a tenor in Colorado with experience singing Opera, Lieder, Choral works and more. After moving from Colorado Springs to the Boulder area, he is working to become a premier professional singer in Northern Colorado. He spent three years studying voice privately with Dr. John Carpenter (a graduate of the Juilliard School and a former featured singer with the Metropolitan Opera in New York City) and is looking for opportunities to gain experience in new and challenging roles. Whether singing in the chorus, or as a soloist, Ron enjoys tackling musical works of all styles, in any language, and is always open to trying something new and different. If you're looking for a hard-working team player for your upcoming production, Ron Stauffer would love to talk more.
