Praised for his “rich vocals and dynamic palette” (Holly Harris, Opera Canada, Fall 2019) and for being “one of the strongest performances” (Holly Harris, Opera Canada, Spring 2023), Manitoban tenor Adam Sperry has had the privilege of performing with many companies across Canada. Adam is a recent graduate of the Schulich School of Music with a Masters of Opera and Voice under the tutelage of John Mac Master.

Adam is thrilled to join New Opera Lyra in their 2023-2024 season performing the title role in Ager's The Great Gatsby.
