KEVIN DEAS Kevin Deas is one of America’s leading basses, perhaps most acclaimed for his signature portrayal of the title rôle in Porgy and Bess. A strong proponent of contemporary music, he was heard at Italy’s Spoleto Festival in a new production of Menotti’s Amahl and the Night Visitors in honor of the composer’s 85th birthday, videotaped for worldwide release, and his 20-year collaboration with Dave Brubeck has taken him to Salzburg, Vienna and Moscow. Kevin Deas’s list of recordings includes Die Meistersinger with the Chicago Symphony under the late Sir Georg Solti and Varèse’s Ecuatorial with the ASKO Ensemble under the baton of Ricardo Chailly. Other releases include Bach’s B minor Mass and Handel’s Acis and Galatea on Vox Classics and Dave Brubeck’s To Hope! with the Cathedral Choral Society on the Telarc label.
