Michael Sylvester
Michael Lane Sylvester (born 21 August 1951), is an American operatic tenor (now retired). In the course of his 25 year career on the opera stage, he appeared in leading tenor roles at many of the world's opera houses, including the Metropolitan Opera, La Scala, La Fenice, the Paris Opera, and London's Royal Opera House. He was described by Elizabeth Forbes as "a powerful actor" who has "a strong bright-toned voice, with an authentic italianate ring."〔Forbes, Elizabeth (2008). ("Sylvester, Michael (Lane Sylvester)" ). ''The Grove Book of Opera Singers'', pp. 479–480. Oxford University Press. ISBN 0195337654〕
