== Biography == DavidMichael Schuster (born 1962) is a ''lirico spinto'' tenor born in Indianapolis, Indiana, United States. Schuster studied with Robert Rockabrand at Ball State University, composer Sam Morgenstern in New York City and Kammersaenger Frederick Mayer in Munich. He has a career which spans more than 25 years, from his debut with the Albany Symphony Orchestra in Albany, New York and recital debut at Carnegie Recital Hall in New York City in 1981, to the stages of Spoleto, Italy and the Bavarian State Theater in Munich, Germany, where he was a leading tenor from 1989-1995 singing Radames (Aida), The King (Love of Three Oranges) and the world premiere of Ubu Rex by Panderewcki where he was double-cast with Robert Tear as King Ubu. Critics said of Schuster’s recital debut, “() shows a young tenor voice not only unusually rich and full in the lower register, but unforced and brilliant in the upper register as well.”〔(New York Times September 1981 )〕 Schuster was a tenor soloist with the RTSI Orchestra in Lugano, Switzerland, where he performed many different operatic roles as well as many oratorios. Mr. Schuster also toured throughout Europe with the Compagnie d’Opera di Milano as Manrico (Il Trovatore) and Pinkerton (Madama Butterfly). The German television program ''Westfalische Rundschau'' commented on his portrayal of Manrico, saying “Herr Schuster was an equal to all the Italians on stage and has a resonantly strong voice ... full of temperament and solid on stage.” And the French press ''Liberation'' noted on the performance of Meyerbeer’s Les Huguenots, “()he last tenor who could negotiate the tricky tessitura of this role (Raoul) was Franco Corelli. Mr. Schuster follows quite unhindered in Mr. Corelli’s footsteps.” In 2007, together with friend and colleague, counter-tenor Timothy Linwood, he founded Amocanti Inc., a non-profit corporation to promote the education and the understanding of classical vocal music. The organization presents concerts using singers who have or have had careers but may not have reached the top of the profession. Many of the participants are now lawyers, doctors, bankers, etc. The concerts are done informally, with singers' round-table discussions with the audience. While based in New York, Amocanti partnered with DELTUR Kunst- und Musikagentur in Heide, Germany in January 2011 to form Amocanti Europe. The hope is that Amocanti and Amocanti Europe will have franchises around the globe continuing to educate, inform and entertain the millions of school-aged children and their parents who do not have easy access to classical vocal music. In April 2011, following the devastating tsunami in Japan, Mr. Schuster together with DELTUR spearheaded the recording of Daniel Léo Simpson's Ave Maria as part of the international Support Japan effort. During 2011, Mr. Schuster in partnership with mezzo-soprano Debra Patchell, released two CD's - PS * Because We're Not Finished Yet and PS - It's Christmas. In January 2012, Schuster, together with award-winning guitarist, Peter Fletcher, appears at Carnegie Hall Weill Auditorium in a program of music for the voice and guitar. Included will be the world premiere of Clarice Assad's Enquanto a noite durar (While the night endures) and the New York premiere of Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco's The Divan of Moses-ibn-Ezra, op. 207. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「David Michael Schuster」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
