Performance History

Before turning to classical education, Dan Snyder built a career as an international opera singer and professional church musician, performing vocal repertoire from Verdi to Wagner with symphonies and opera houses from Berlin to San Francisco. With the U.S. Army Chorus he performed frequently at the White House, and his work has been reviewed in Wired magazine, PC Gamer, the Discovery Channel, Opera News, and the Kurt Weill Newsletter.

A selection of recordings and photographs from that career follows below.
