Sing of love, conquest, betrayal and heartache, the tenor voice romances. Philip Grant, Todd Jang and Frederick Robert, together as ROMANZA, have been winning people’s hearts everywhere they perform. Accompanied by their wonderful ensemble of piano, violin and bass, ROMANZQ have taken the tenor repertoire to new heights by re-invigorating opera hits, Italian favorites, popular folksongs and well-loved ballads with their own irresistible and original arrangements.
PHILIP GRANT has become know for his exciting rich tone and dedication to excellent musicianship through his performances with Vancouver Opera, Opera Nuova, Il Ruggiero di Bologna, Teatro Corleone and Opera Breve as well as with six symphonies in the Pacific Northwest. He has quickly established himself as an emerging young talent through more than a dozen lead operatic roles.
TODD JANG, originally from Liverpool England, has performed roles with opera companies across Canada, including Vancouver Opera, Calgary Opera, Opera Saskatchewan and Edmonton Opera. Todd’s passion for music not only encompasses opera and classical genres, but spans a broad spectrum of styles including jazz, rock and hip-hop. A versatile performer, Todd sings a Mozart aria with the same commitment and enthusiasm as an Elton John ballad. He also holds a Chef Diploma from one of Canada’s top culinary schools and is equally passionate about food as he is about singing.
Only 26 years old, FREDERIK ROBERT has already sung roles with many companies across Canada including Edmonton Opera, The Opera Project, Calgary Opera, Opera Nuova, Opera Saskatoon, Prince George Symphony, Winnipeg Symphony and National Arts Symphony Orchestra. Frederik is versatile in opera, oratorio, recital work, musical theatre and pop.
