Virginia native baritone Wil Kellerman has been described as "superb...a promising voice" (OperaWire) and "winning" (Schmopera) in recent performances. Wil was a 2021 Resident Artist at Teatro Nuovo, where he performed the role of the Officer in Il barbiere di Siviglia, making his Lincoln Center debut. Earlier this year, Kellerman essayed the works of exiled composer Egon Lustgarten at the Austrian Cultural Forum in New York. Other recent appearances include Masetto in Don Giovanni with the MidAtlantic Symphony, Count Vaudemont in I vespri siciliani with New Amsterdam Opera, an artist series recital at the University of Scranton, Golaud in Pelléas et Mélisande at the Moss Arts Center at Virginia Tech, Hunding in Die Walküre, a gala performance to benefit Roanoke Symphony, and in 2019 the Secret Police Agent in The Consul, as well as the title role in The Mikado with Bronx Opera. Past engagements include Alcade and Chirurgo in La forza del destino with New Amsterdam Opera. In 2021, Mr. Kellerman appeared in concert as a finalist in the SAS International Voice Competition. Wil recently earned a Master of Music degree from Mannes School of Music, where he performed the roles of Figaro in Le nozze di Figaro and Nick Shadow in The Rake's Progress. In 2018 he was an Apprentice Artist at Teatro Nuovo, the new home of Bel Canto at Caramoor. Past festivals include Songfest, The Chautauqua Institute, and IVAI Virginia. Wil resides in New York City, where he is also a sought-after chess tutor and violinist.
