John Holiday is one of the most promising countertenors of his generation. Holiday’s star is rising and this week he will once again have a chance to prove it at the Bruce R. Foote Foundation Concert.

The tenor, who is a recipient of the Bruce R. Foote award, will perform a concert that will show his talent in distinct repertoire, which includes music by Handel. The concert, which will be held in Texas, is to support young students with a background that has been historically under-represented in the advanced pursuit of classical vocal studies.

Critics have raved about Holiday and have stated that his voice is “powerful and agile and has an immense range, with seamless registers top to bottom.” As a result, audiences can expect a virtuosic concert that will leave them wanting more.
