Montreal-born baritone Gerald Finley is well know for his performances in opera, especially in the operas of Mozart.
"Home for Finley is a village near Glyndebourne, the opera house with which he has been most closely associated. His wife is the mezzo-soprano Louise Winter, . . . and the couple have two sons."--from an article by Rupert Christiansen, 4 June 2005, at telegraph.co.uk.

Glyndebourne Festival Opera Announces 2010 Summer Season
"The festival's second new production is Don Giovanni, continuing a Glyndebourne tradition of constantly revisiting the mature Mozart operas. Twenty-four years after originally joining the company's chorus, Gerald Finley will play the title role, and is joined by an equally stellar cast: Kate Royal's Elvira, Anna Samuil's Anna, William Burden's Ottavio and Luca Pisaroni's Leporello. Music Director Vladimir Jurowski will conduct the OAE."--MusicalCriticsm.com

"If Gerald Finley were not also such an outstanding interpreter of German, French and American songs, he could easily get pigeonholed as an English-music specialist. The clarity and precise shading of his singing ensures that not a word goes astray; the effortless elegance of his phrasing preserves the exact shape of every line, while crucially never lapsing into the sentimentality that so often seems to be lurking round the corner in this repertory."--from review by Andrew Clements for the Guardian of June 22, 2009, recital at Wigmore Hall
