Mark S. Doss Announces Fachually Correct Concert Series
By Francisco SalazarMark S. Doss has announced a new weekly concert series, live streaming on Facebook each Wednesday at 7 p.m. EDT.
The new series is entitled “Fachually Correct” and each episode will highlight three famous low-voiced artists. The segment will begin with a vintage recording from the artist of the past, an enlightening explanation from Doss, and then his own performance of the iconic music.
In a press release, Doss noted, “Conductors, Artistic Directors, and Artistic Administrators have not been sure of what to do with my voice for years. My lower vocal range has always been clear and present, so some insisted that I was a bass. But when they heard how easy and strong my high notes were, others were sure that I was a baritone. I recall a singer, who had a reputable career going as a bass, heard one of my performances of Silva in ‘Ernani‘ and was convinced I was a bass, but then he heard me sing Amonasro in ‘Aida‘ only a couple of years later and was just as convinced that I was a baritone. My ability to change my vocal coloring to suit the Fach puzzled him a bit. This kind of flexibility in roles considered bass, baritone, or bass-baritone has been the hallmark of my career.”
Doss’ concert series will be streamed on Facebook with each episode costing $9.99.
