Filipino-American bass-baritone Enrico Lagasca is a highly sought-after vocalist, having performed in over a hundred oratorios, contemporary works, opera roles, song cycles, and collections. In the 2024–2025 season, Enrico made highly anticipated debuts with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra, Toronto Symphony Orchestra, and Winston-Salem Symphony Orchestra. Recent engagements include his debut at BachFest Leipzig with Bach Collegium San Diego and performances with the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus and San Francisco Symphony Orchestra, with the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra, Portland Baroque Orchestra, Tafelmusik, Ars Lyrica Houston, American Classical Orchestra, Experiential Orchestra, Washington Bach Consort, among others. In 2023, he was resident soloist for the Carmel Bach Festival. Praised for his “smooth, dark bass voice” (Classics Today), he is featured on six Grammy Award-nominated recordings. “Bass-baritone Enrico Lagasca summoned nearly as much volume as everyone else onstage put together.” (Tim Smith), his voice has been described as “an oratorio voice that strikes fear of God in the hearts of the audience,” (Ludwig van Toronto) and his performance of Bach St. Matthew Passion at Saint Thomas Church was hailed as “an outpouring of devotion and grief as elegant as it was moving.” (Seen and Heard International). Fanfare noted his recent recording of Bach St. Matthew Passion as "completely convincing; the sheer joy exuded by the bass aria “Gebt mir meinen Jesum wieder!” with bass soloist Enrico Lagasca in fine form, with zero smudging to his melismas; Lagasca shines again towards the end in his aria, “Mache dich, mein Herze, rein”, and Gramophone citing Lagasca as “warm bass voice”.
