Tenor Thore Dosdall performs regularly in the Twin Cities, both on the opera stage and as a church musician. Most recently part of Skylark Opera’s 2022 production of Amahl and the Night Visitors, Thore has also performed with Opera on the Lake, Mill City Summer Opera, Really Spicy Opera, and the Gilbert and Sullivan Very Light Opera Company. Since June 2021, he has been the Tenor II Section Leader for the Cathedral Choir of St. Mark’s Episcopal in Minneapolis. Thore looks forward to performing with the Minnesota Opera Chorus in this upcoming season’s productions of L’elisir d’amore and La boheme.
Another important part of Thore’s musical life is the study and performance of Norwegian art song. He has had the good fortune to visit relatives in Norway numerous times and to study Norwegian culture, history, and music in Oslo and Tromsø during his undergraduate studies at St. Olaf College. Double majoring in music and Norwegian, Thore presented a lecture recital on the religious art song of Norway, earning distinction from the language department. He has placed twice in the triennial Edvard Grieg Society of Minnesota Voice Competition (2018 & 2022) and is currently studying the repertoire of Sigurd Lie, a younger contemporary of Grieg.
