The Canadian bass, Paul Oros, nurtured his vocal talents at St. Michael’s Choir School and the Royal Conservatory of Music, with early performing forays with the Toronto Mendelssohn Youth Choir and Ontario Youth Choir.
Regarded for his burnished tone and nuanced interpretations, Paul Oros appeared with the Canadian Opera Company, National Ballet of Canada, Tafelmusik Chamber Choir, Opera Atelier, Theatre of Early Music (Director: Daniel Taylor), Toronto Mendelssohn Choir, Opera in Concert, Opera Hamilton, Toronto Operetta Theatre, The Assembly of Voices, Orpheus Choir of Toronto, Toronto Bach Consort, Nota Bene Baroque Singers, and Soundstreams Choir 21. Guest soloist appearances include the medieval ensemble Sine Nomine, Pax Christi Chorale, Toronto Chamber Choir, Toronto Consort, and the Grand Philharmonic Chamber Singers. He is a featured soloist in J.S. Bach's Cantata Series Church of the Redeemer: Bach Vespers, Toronto. In addition to several critically acclaimed recordings with Tafelmusik Chamber Choir, Toronto Bach Consort, and Ottawa Bach Choir, he can also be heard on the soundtracks to the television series The Tudors and The Borgias.
Paul Oros regards music as a key component in the synthesis that fuels his passions for the visual arts, literature, history, architecture and dance, where each discipline reflects, influences and informs the experiences of the others. When these elements come together, it can make for an intensely satisfying and enriching experience. Performance highlights include High Mass at St. Mark’s Basilica in Venice; opening night of Opera Atelier's W.A. Mozart's Don Giovanni at the New National Theatre in Tokyo; a celebrated new production of Wagner's Der fliegende Holländer with the Canadian Opera Company; and appearances with the Ottawa Bach Choir during Bachfest Leipzig at the Thomaskirche in Leipzig. He is delighted to return to the Toronto Chamber Choir in the 2024-2025 season.
In addition to his musical activities, Paul Oros is an experienced, results-oriented senior admin support professional. He currently lives in Toronto, Ontario. |
