"...Park’s singing, by turns warm and pleading, anguished and helplessly swamped by his own feelings, brought a deep dimension to the role..."
-San Francisco Classical Voice

John began the 2024-2025 season with Opera on the James, debuting as Rodolfo in La Boheme. He returned to Opera Grand Rapids as Loud Stone in Matthew Aucoin’s Eurydice, then premiered the role of Daruma with New Performance Traditions’ production of Both Eyes Open by Max
Duykers. John recently made a major role debut – Manrico in Verdi’s Il Trovatore with Boheme Opera NJ, and will be traveling in the spring for the titular role in Verdi’s Otello with West Bay Opera. He will close his season by joining the Glimmerglass Festival as an apprentice artist covering Mario Cavaradossi in Tosca , and will kick off the 25/26 season debuting as Nemorino in L'elisir d'amore with Opera Modesto and Lt. Pinkerton in Madama Butterfly with Opera on the James.
