Praised by Opera News for his “appealingly suave baritone”, Phillip K. Bullock, a native of Washington DC, has been featured in operas, recitals and concerts throughout the United States and Europe. Phillip had the pleasure of performing the role of Jake, in Porgy & Bess, at the Sächsische Staatsoper in Dresden, Germany and he has covered the same role in The Royal Danish Opera’s new production in Copenhagen, Denmark. Recently, Phillip made his debut with the Atlanta Opera and Cincinnati Opera in their productions of Gounod’s Romeo & Juilet and Puccini’s Tosca respectively. In addition to standard opera, Phillip has extensive experience performing other genres of music and the had pleasure of premièring many new works of opera and masterworks that celebrate the fusion of styles; most recently including Deep Blue Sea, the award winning production from the famed Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company, and the critically acclaimed Castor & Patience, the latest opera from composer Gregory Spears and poet Tracy K. Smith. This season, Phillip appeared as the God of Love in the premiere Kate Soper’s Romance of the Rose with Long Beach Opera in Los Angeles, CA and will make his company debut in a reimagined production of Scott Joplin’s Treemonisha with The Opera Theatre of St. Louis.
