Aaron Humble brings to Cantus many years of professional and academic
musical experience. While pursuing undergraduate and advanced degrees,
Aaron worked as a conductor, singer, and clinician. A native of Northeast
Ohio, music has always been a vital part of Aaron’s life but it
wasn’t until Aaron was 14 that he started seriously pursuing vocal
music. While at Millikin University, Aaron collaborated with the Dean of the College of Fine Arts to secure over $30,000 in grant money from the Illinois Arts Council to fund an opera out reach program. After implementing the program, Aaron served as the Student Director of the program from 1997-1999. While at Indiana University, Aaron served as Director of Music at St. Paul United Methodist Church while also serving the Columbus Indiana Philharmonic as Choral Contractor. A sampling of Aaron’s operatic credits include Tamino in Die Zauberflote, Jenik in the Bartered Bride, Pedrillo in Die Einfuhrung Aus Dem Serail, Martin in The Tenderland, Harlequin in Der Kaiser von Atlantis, Pinkerton in Madama Butterfly, and Sam in Susannah. Aaron has sung recital and oratorio throughout the United States and the United Kingdom. Oratorio credits include: Handel's Messiah and Israel in Egypt, Seven Last Words of Christ (Dubois and MacMillan), Mozart’s Requiem, Schubert’s Mass in G, Schumann's Die Rose Pilgerfahrt, Mendelsohn's Lobgesang, Bender's St. Mark's Passion, Gounod’s Misse Solemnelle, Buxtehude’s Membra Jesu Nostri as well as numerous Bach Cantatas. As a student and scholar, Aaron has focused much of his study on American Music, most especially the development of the American vocal repertoire. From William Billings to commissions by up-and-coming young composers, Aaron enjoys singing American music of all kinds. With his varied interest in opera, oratorio, art song, and choral music, Aaron enjoys sharing his passion for music with people of all ages. As a musician, Aaron strongly believes that music is a way to connect people from all walks of life. It is music with this potential that is truly inspiring. Regarding hobbies, Aaron has been a student forever and thus, has no hobbies. But seriously, when he has the time Aaron enjoys reading, cooking and baking, home improvement activities and tennis. Aaron also enjoys cheesy made-for-TV movies, and spreading the love of the Mac computer experience. Meet the Singer - Aaron Humble Click to download the podcast |
