Brent L. Damkier, (pronounced Dam-key-r) handsome lyric tenor at the Regensburg Opera, is best known for his recent roles as Prince Tamino in The Magic Flute and Prince Ramiro in Cinderella.

Eine Nacht in Venedig, (A Night in Venice) by Strauss premiered on October 23, 2004. Damkier plays the roll of Pappacoda, a Spaghetti cook. It is a tremendous comic roll and Damkier usually receives the most applause even through it is a smaller singing role. This is the remaining performance. Just 75 miles (120 kilometers) out of Munich is the historic German town of Regensburg. Just off the Danube River, nestled in the heart of a charming old town square is an intimate 380 year-old opera house seating 524 dedicated patrons and international guests; it is home to the leading tenor.

Damkier, who has performed throughout Europe, thrills audiences, with his sweet interpretation and punctuated tenor dexterity. From character parts, to the male ingénue, to the leading man, Damkier is bridging his operating roots to a U.S. tour in 2006 which will cross-over to a cabaret format broadening his audience and fan club. One of the recital performances in early 2006 will be recorded and distributed for wide release.

The youthful face looks to be fresh out of high school having originally hailed from Northern California, yet is the face, voice, and actor of a well-trained virtuoso in his thirties. Six years ago without any training in German, the nearly six-foot tall, handsome, golden-eyed, fair-skinned performer headed for Germany to hone his craft on the stages of several smaller opera companies. According to producer and promoter TR Cutler, Damkier will make his recital debut in South Florida.
