Stephen Salters’ passionate and impeccably articulated performances of a wide range of repertoire have won him acclaim throughout Europe, the UK, Asia and the United States. He works regularly with leading conductors including Christoph Eschenbach, Seiji Ozawa, Robert Spano, Nicholas McGegan, Keith Lockhart, Ivor Bolton, Will Crutchfield, Leonard Slatkin, Hugh Wolff, Bobby McFerrin, Jane Glover, Jeff Tyzik, and Martin Haselböck.

Some highlights include the Minotaur in the world premiere of Philippe Fénelon’s Les Rois for Opera National in Bordeaux, the creation of the title role in Elena Ruehr’s Toussaint Before the Spirits, and the lead role of Kovalyov in rare performances of Shostakovich’s opera The Nose.
