The production was directed by Francesca Zambello and conducted by Michelle Rofrano. About Maxwell’s performance, Opera News wrote, “Mr. Levy is that rare, somewhat dark voiced tenor who not only has the stentorian delivery needed to fill any hall, but also the ability to scale it back with gorgeous results, as he imbues his vocalization with immense heart and feeling…I can predict you will hear much much more of tenor Maxwell Levy.” Maxwell will perform the role of the Ghost Quartet in John Corigliano’s The Ghosts of Versailles, directed by Jay Lesenger and conducted by Joseph Colaneri. He will also be performing the role of the Emcee/Ensemble in Kern and Hammerstein’s Show Boat directed by Francesca Zambello and E. Loren Meeker and conducted by James Lowe.
