The Robert E. and Jean Ann Titus Art Song Recital Series will feature internationally-acclaimed New Zealand-born heldentenor, Simon O'Neill, a principal artist at The Metropolitan Opera; the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden; Teatro alla Scala; and both the Bayreuth and Salzburg Festivals; in an exclusive recital produced by The Dallas Opera.

The performance will take place on Sunday, January 27, 2019 at 2:00 p.m. in Moody Performance Hall (a 749-seat venue located at 2520 Flora Street-across the street from the Winspear Opera House in the Dallas Arts District). Tickets go on sale at 9 a.m. Wednesday for $15 and $25 and may be purchased online or by contacting the friendly professionals in The Dallas Opera Ticket Office at 214.443.1000.

"Simon O'Neill is the heroic tenor of choice for many of the world's top opera companies," explains Ian Derrer (The Kern Wildenthal General Director and CEO) "and The Dallas Opera is proud to present him in person to North Texas opera lovers.

"The opportunity to enjoy Simon's titanic voice and presence in the most intimate of art songs is an experience not to be missed - especially for those left spellbound by his recent appearance with the Dallas Symphony Orchestra. We are incredibly grateful for the Titus Family's continued generous support of these annual recitals."

Earlier this year Classical Music Critic William Dart wrote in the New Zealand Herald that his recent performances "confirmed (Simon O'Neill) is still the Heldentenor of our dreams."

Simon O'Neill will be accompanied by renowned pianist, Terence Dennis, the head of Performance Studies at the University of Otago Department of Music in his native New Zealand. Mr. Dennis frequently accompanies some of the world's most renowned vocalists, ranging from Dame Kiri Te Kanawa to Sir Bryn Terfel and has collaborated with Mr. O'Neill for more than a decade.

The Dallas Opera's Titus Recital will also mark the launch of the international release of the first collaboration of these artists on CD: "Distant Beloved," a Decca/Universal release featuring works by Wagner, Beethoven, Schumann and Richard Strauss performed by O'Neill and Dennis.
