Adam Ewing

Lyric baritone Adam Ewing holds degrees from The University of Colorado at Boulder (DMA in vocal performance and pedagogy), Indiana University (MM in vocal performance), and Northwest Missouri State University (BsEd in vocal music). He is a proponent of versatility in both teaching and performing, and particularly enjoys solo art song recitals, where he displays a wide range of characters and vocal colors. His love of art song has led him to study at several premiere song festivals, including the Vancouver International Song Institute, Fall Island Vocal Arts Seminar with Stephanie Blythe and Dr. Alan Smith, and the Ukrainian Art Song Summer Institute. Adam was a national finalist and Berton Coffin award recipient at the 2018 NATS Artist Awards competition.

No stranger to the theatrical stage, Adam’s operatic highlights include Schaunard in La Boheme with the Colorado Symphony, Major General Stanley in The Pirates of Penzance with Loveland Opera, Diego Garcia in Frida Kahlo and the Bravest Girl in the World with Central City Opera, and numerous roles with both the Eklund Opera at The University of Colorado at Boulder and the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University. He is invested in bringing classical music to nontraditional spaces as well, performing Kaiser Overall in a puppet theater production of Der Kaiser von Atlantis with the People’s Theater of Denver, and frequent themed concerts with Opera on Tap. He is often called upon as a last-minute substitute for both recitals and stage productions. Additionally, Adam has been music director, conductor, and pianist for a number of musical theater productions, including Fiddler on the Roof, Into the Woods, and Company with CU-Boulder, as well as chorus master for the Boulder Bach Festival’s production of J.S. Bach’s Mass in B Minor.

Adam values orchestral and chamber music as well. He has performed the bass solos in The Messiah throughout Colorado’s Front Range, the baritone solos in Fauré’s Requiem across the United States, and Vaughan Williams’ Five Mystical Songs and Dona Nobis Pacem with the American University of Beirut in Lebanon. He has over two decades of experience as a liturgical musician and music director.

As Assistant Professor in Voice at The College of Wooster, Adam teaches Voice and Opera & Lyric Theatre Workshop.
