Marc Hervieux Tickets

The "national tenor" of Canada – Marc Hervieux

Marc Hervieux is a classical singer from Canada, a native of Quebec. He was originally a graphic artist but was persuaded to audition for an opera part by his friends and astonished the professional opera world with his voice. He has since been called the Pavarotti of Quebec and has performed some of the world's most famous tenor roles in some of the most celebrated operas. If you're an opera fan and you haven't heard him, you really should change that as soon as possible – you can buy or sell Marc Hervieux tickets here on StubHub.

Uncovering a tenor of a generation

The story of Marc Hervieux is quite astounding, and almost as heart-warming a tale of modern operatic success as that of Paul Potts. While running his design studio in Montreal, prompted by his friends, he recorded an audition tape for the New Theatre Company's production of "Don Juan Returns From War". His tape contained his interpretations of famous excerpts from Don Giovanni and the organisers were so impressed that they gave him the role on the spot. From there it was fairytale stuff all the way. He began to receive invitations from opera companies around Canada and down into the USA, becoming a much feted tenor, with a reputation as having the perfect pitch for this most prized of male voices. He has shown himself capable of a wide range of operatic performances and roles and has a vocal power and richness that is so sought-after in a dramatic tenor. Experience this phenomenal operatic force with Marc Hervieux tickets, which you'll find for his performances with full opera companies, as well as for his solo appearances.

Residencies with top opera companies

Marc Hervieux has since enjoyed residencies with some of the finest opera houses in the world, as well as having been invited to perform in many more. Despite his sensational path to fame, he's always remained a down-to-earth performer and individual. This was probably most clearly demonstrated when he turned down an invitation to perform at the world-famous La Scala di seta Milan, one of the very cradles of modern opera, because he had a commitment to a much smaller company in Canada. His most talked about residency was with the Metropolitan Opera, with whom he has recorded as well. He has also released a solo album of covers of classic singers like Jean-Jacques Goldman and Charles Aznavour.
