Counter-tenor David Daniels is a man of contrasts, an artist whose designer-stubbled good looks and formidable basketball skills belie the sweet, delicate, high-pitched timbre of his rare voice. Whether on stage at the Metropolitan Opera or performing in London with Cecilia Bartoli, his compelling musicianship and powerful stage presence regularly bring audiences to their feet.

"Daniels has the voice of a boy soprano, clear and beautifully produced, yet projected with the virility and lung power of an adult. He is a consummate musician and, though just past 30, a mature and individual artist." - New York Times
