Christian Sanders has been hailed as a “…voice whose color belies his age. Someone to watch!” (Bill Eadie, SanDiego.com). His operatic repertoire encompasses Tom Rakewell in The Rake’s Progress, the title character in Albert Herring, Fenton in Falstaff, Laurie in Little Women, Tamino in Die Zauberflöte, Rinuccio in Gianni Schicchi, and Prince Charmant in Cendrillon, as well as a broad range of modern opera and work by living composers. Christian’s busy 2022-2023 brings several significant engagements: Dorvil in Rossini’s La scala di seta, reprising his highly acclaimed Tobias Ragg in Sweeney Todd with Austin Opera, Beppe in Pagliacci with the Sacramento Philharmonic, Loge in Das Rheingold with Dayton Opera, and returning to the Opera Theatre of Saint Louis as Little Bat in Susannah by Carlisle Floyd.  In the previous season, he made his company debut with Opera Santa Barbara singing The Song Seller in Il tabarro, and covered Miles Zegner in Proving Up with the Lyric Opera of Chicago (canceled due to COVID-19).
