Tenor Evan Katsefes has performed in opera, recital and concert throughout the United States. Mr. Katsefes studies at The Manhattan School of Music in pursuit of a Bachelors Degree in Vocal Performance in the studio of Marlena Malas.

Evan Katsefes currently devotes much of his professional time in the field of Sacred Music as an in-demand musician serving in both Roman Catholic and Lutheran Churches. For five years, Evan was the youngest member of the Saint Patrick’s Cathedral Choir under the direction of Dr. Jennifer Pascual. As a member of this choir, Mr. Katsefes sang at liturgies and events which included two Papal Visits to the United States and his solo debut on the Millennium Stage of the Kennedy Centre in Washington D.C..

Evan also has been featured as soloist at St. Patrick’s Cathedral at the annual A City Sings At Christmas Concert, the Irish Heritage Concert and the Saint Patrick’s Day Mass in 2015. Evan also has served as a Cantor for the Diocese of Brooklyn, which included the recent installation of the eighth Bishop of Brooklyn in November 2021. Mr. Katsefes has been on the rosters of numerous young artist programs, both in-person and virtually at the Curtis Institute of Music, the Chautauqua Institution, Classical Singing and New York in June, and the Queens Summer Vocal Institute. As a student of these programs, Evan has worked with the likes of Susan Graham, Christine Georke, Ben Moore, Margo Garrett, Corradina Capporello, and others. Mr. Katsefes has been very active throughout his career in the arts working closely with many non-profit organizations, such as the Oratorio Society of Queens, where he has been featured as a student choral scholar and served as the Assistant to the Administrative Director. Evan’s affiliation with the Brooklyn Philharmonia Chorus began in 2015, when he joined the board as a member at large and subsequently wrote grants for the chorus, under the guidance of the Brooklyn Council of the Arts.

Recent Concert credits include tenor soloist in Bach’s St. John Passion with The Opera Next Door. In the Summer of 2022, in addition to performing a solo recital following his solo debut as a featured artist with the Oratorio Society of Queens, Evan made his debut at Chautauqua Opera, covering the role of Andrew Johnson in Virgil Thompson’s The Mother of Us All and participated in a workshop reading of The House on Mango Street while simultaneously attending the Chautauqua Opera Conservatory, a Summer-long Young Artist Program in Western New York. In the Conservatory, Evan also sang the role of the Pasek in Janáček’s The Cunning Little Vixen, performed in the institution’s five thousand seat amphitheater.

Evan’s time spent outside of his life in music is filled with adventurous travel, cooking, and supporting the arts in and around New York City, which he calls home. 

Twenty-year old soprano Jennifer Robinson, a native of Florida, is currently studying voice at the prestigious Manhattan School of Music. Living in New York City since the fall of 2021, she has blossomed as a young professional. Working with renowned conductors such as Kent Tritle on Mozart’s Requiem and Fauré’s Requiem, Thomas Muraco performing select scenes as Gilda from Verdi’s Rigoletto, and George Manahan on the ethereal The Planets by Holst, Jennifer has taken every opportunity possible to learn and grow as a young artist. As of April, Jennifer excitedly signed her first professional contract with Ars Musica Chorale, based in Ridgewood, New Jersey, as their concert seasons’ soprano soloist. She is thrilled to be singing Mozart’s Requiem again and expanding her repertoire with a Brahm’s literature concert, as well as the wonderful Messiah by G.F Handel. Alongside this, she is thrilled to be joining incredible pianist and friend Barbara Podgurski for an evening of song alongside Tenor Evan Katsefas this January as a part of the Música Reginae season in Queens, New York. As she tackles the upcoming conservatory semester, she can’t wait to expand her repertoire and further her musicianship and abilities as an artist through these opportunities.
