Bio
Zach Borichevsky is known as a “star-level tenor” with “precise, nuanced high-register singing and agile acting,” paired with a “magical sense of complete spontaneity that comes from being in total command of the instrument.” He has performed in La bohème (Rodolfo) with Finnish National Opera, Roméo et Juliette (Romeo) with Teatro Municipal de Santiago in Chile, and La traviata (Alfredo) with the Glyndebourne Festival. He made his Metropolitan Opera debut in Manon Lescaut (Edmondo), Santa Fe Opera debut in Vanessa (Anatol), and English National Opera debut in La bohème (Rodolfo).
This season, Zach joins Nashville Opera, Virginia Opera, and Florentine Opera in Carmen (Don José), has house debuts with Opera Colorado in La bohème and San Diego Opera in La traviata (Alfredo), and returns to The Metropolitan Opera to cover the Duke in Rigoletto. He will also sing in recital with his wife, soprano Kathryn Lewek, at the Danbury Concert Association, Fairfield County Chorale, and in Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9 with Kent Tritle at St. John the Divine. Last season, Zach made his house debut with Opéra Nice Côte d’Azur in Lucia di Lammermoor (Edgardo) and returned to The Metropolitan Opera to cover Rodolfo in La bohème and Roméo in Roméo et Juliette.
