Wolf Trap Opera alumnus John Holiday ('14) has established himself as "one of the finest countertenors of his generation" (Los Angeles Times). Holiday enjoys an international career singing with opera companies such as the Metropolitan Opera, Bayerische Staatsoper (Munich), and Lyric Opera of Chicago, among others. Now, he returns to The Barns to sing works by Price, Bonds, Robert L. Morris, Gershwin, and more.
