Biography

Korean baritone Sejin Park
“Sejin Park portrayed a charming and intentional Prince Yamadori, with a formidable baritone voice that gave a unique perspective into this character.”
- Palm Beach Daily News

“Sejin Park expertly plays the evil brother, Enrico, in Act II, scene 1, from Donizetti’s “Lucia di Lammermoor,” commanding the stage and using every corner to brood over his beverage. Park has a crisp baritone voice with powerful punches in the phrasing. He had an uncanny ability to find the best coloring of his voice to support soprano Amber Norelai in the duet.”
- The Palm Beach Post
