Ms. Detwiler has sung over thirty roles with regional companies on the West Coast, favoring Mahler, Strauss, Bel Canto and French repertoire. Critics have described her instrument as "amber-voiced," "a velvety mezzo soprano voice with excellent range," with performances being cited as "riveting" and holding "center stage commandingly." Recently, she debuted Jade Boucher in Dead Man Walking with Opera Idaho, and Le nozze di Figaro's Cherubino with Gemma Arts, and returned as director of the Emerging Artists Program on the vocal faculty of Italy's Narnia Festival to advance the skills of young artists. Next spring will see her debut with Mississippi Opera as Orlofsky in Die Fledermaus. In addition, the mezzo has sung with Sacramento Opera, Opera San Jose, Livermore Valley Opera, Mid-Atlantic Opera, Opera Idaho, Inland Northwest Opera, West Bay Opera, the Boise Philharmonic, Northwest Florida Symphony Orchestra, Symphony Silicon Valley, Auburn Symphony, and Idaho State Civic-Symphony. She currrently lives in Boise, Idaho with her husband, baritone Jason Detwiler and studies with New York's Andrea DelGiudice.
With nearly sixty roles to his credit, Detwiler has become well-known for his magnetic and energizing stage performances. His voice and acting have been described as “emotionally fervid,” “richly expressive,” and “commanding,” garnering acclaim as Eugene Onegin, Conte di Luna (Il trovatore), Zurga (Les pêcheurs de perles), and John Proctor (The Crucible), among others. Last season saw the baritone take on Counts Almaviva and di Luna, Owen Hart, Germont, Scarpia, Lescaut, and the world premiere of Aeneas (in Jake Landau’s & Aeterna) in Idaho, New York, New Jersey, and Italy. This year marks his role and company debuts as Edgar (Tell Tale Heart)/Kinsman (Annabel) with Opera Modesto and Eisenstein (Die Fledermaus) with Mississippi Opera. The baritone has performed nationally and abroad with San Diego Opera, Virginia Opera, Wichita Grand Opera, Opéra Théâtre d'Avignon, Teatro Comunale di Narni, Opera Santa Barbara, Opera Parallèle, Syracuse Opera, Sacramento Opera, Opera San Jose, Opera Idaho, Shreveport Opera, Vallejo Symphony Orchestra, and the Boise Philharmonic, among others. Mr. Detwiler is a 2023 Idaho Commission on the Arts recipient and studies with New York’s Andrea DelGiudice. He currently lives in Boise, Idaho with his wife, mezzo-soprano Michele Detwiler.
