As a clarinetist, his performances are known for their technical skill and emotional depth, making him a cherished figure in Humboldt’s vibrant music scene.

David Powell – Tenor

David Powell is an accomplished tenor with a rich history in opera and classical music performance. Raised in Humboldt County, David has spent much of his life studying and performing across the U.S. He has performed notable roles such as Tamino at Lincoln Center and Symphony Space with New York Lyric Opera and Newland Archer in the world premiere of Age of Innocence with Classical Singing in New York. His return to the redwoods has brought him to the stage with the Dell’Arte Company and Ferndale Repertory Theater, where he has also contributed as a vocal director.

David began his operatic training at Humboldt State University before continuing his studies at the Boston Conservatory and privately in New York under Julliard faculty. His impressive performance career has taken him across the country, but the natural beauty and community of Humboldt County continue to draw him back. David is currently completing his Master’s degree in Physical Theater and was thrilled to be the tenor soloist in the Messiah with the Eureka Symphony this holiday season.
