John Holiday: Classical Musician in New York

About John Holiday

John Holiday is an American countertenor whose work moves between Baroque repertory and new music, in staged opera, concert settings, and mixed-media projects. He has appeared with ensembles and conductors including Music of the Baroque, Handel, and Jane Glover, and has shared the stage with artists such as Amanda Forsythe, Nicholas Phan, and Kevin Deas. In New York City, he is heard at David Geffen Hall in Handel’s *Messiah* with the Music of the Baroque Chorus. His singing tends toward clean line and textual focus rather than vocal display.
