ARTIST SERIES OF SARASOTS presents Thomas Hammons and Kristen Kemp in concert

Bass-baritone Thomas Hammons has been acclaimed throughout the United States, Canada, and across Europe, for the depth and richness of his portrayals and the strength and beauty of his singing. A versatile singing actor, Mr. Hammons has an active repertoire of over 40 roles and is equally at home in the classic basso buffo repertoire and in the world of modern music theater. He made his debut at The Metropolitan Opera as the Sacristan in Tosca during the 1996-97 Season, and took part in the premiere of Jonathan Miller's acclaimed production of Le Nozze di Figaro. He has returned to the MET every season thereafter for numerous productions including Billy Budd, L’elisir d’amore, Die Meistersinger, La Bohème, Werther, The Merry Widow, La Traviata, La Cenerentola and L’Italiana in Algeri, War and Peace, Manon Lescaut and La Traviata.

Mr Hammons is accompanied by Maestra Kristen Kemp, a Florida native and vocal coach and pianist for the Sarasota Opera, Cincinnati Opera Opera Pacific, Michigan Opera Theater, Indianapolis Opera, Kentucky Opera and many more. Call the Historic Asolo Box Office at 941.360.7399. $40, $35, $25
