Tenor Alex Boyer is known for his commanding voice and dramatic portrayals of the lyric and spinto tenor repertoire. Hailed by the San Francisco Chronicle for Festival Opera’s production of Pagliacci, Boyer “mustered a large, potent sound that brought a welcome measure of anguish and dark menace to the role of Canio; his delivery of the famous showpiece ‘Vesti la giubba’ lacked nothing in the way of grit and vocal power.”

The artist makes several important role and house debuts in 2024. Engagements include Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony with the Modesto Symphony, Puccini’s Messe di Gloria with the Golden Gate Men’s Chorus, Siegfried in Legend of the Ring with West Edge Opera, Remendado in Carmen and covering Riccardo in Un Ballo in Maschera at San Francisco Opera and his house debut with the Metropolitan Opera covering Ruggero in La Rondine. In 2025, the tenor returns to the Metropolitan Opera covering Cavaradossi in Tosca, Tchekalinsky in Pique Dame, and singing Third Jew in Salome. Later that season he debuts the role of Senator Robert F. Kennedy in the world premiere of Nicolas Benavides’ new opera, Dolores, with San Diego Opera, Opera Southwest and West Edge Opera.

In 2023 Alex appeared in several productions as Cavaradossi in Tosca (Opera San Jose, Livermore Valley Opera, Cinnabar Theater), and sang the Duke in Rigoletto with Opera in the Heights. The tenor also sang Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony with the Idaho Falls Symphony and Tybalt in Romeo et Juliette with Opera San Jose.

In 2022 Alex sang Cassio in Otello with Livermore Valley Opera, and numerous concert performances including Festival Opera at Piedmont Center for the Arts, a snapshot concert with West Edge Opera, a Vienna Operetta concert at the Vallejo Performing Arts Center, and Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony with Quad City and Glacier Symphony Orchestras. Credits from 2019 – 2022 include Tichon in Janáček's Káťa Kabanová with West Edge Opera, Cavaradossi in Tosca with Hawaii Opera Theater, Captain Ahab in Jake Heggie's Moby Dick with Chicago Opera Theater, Dr. Richardson in West Edge Opera’s production of Breaking the Waves, Sam Polk in Susannah with Festival Opera, and Des Grieux in Berkeley Chamber Opera’s production of Manon Lescaut.

Other roles include La Rondine and the title role in Kashchey the Immortal with Island City Opera, the Abbot in Andrea Chénier with San Francisco Opera, Rodolfo in La bohème and the Duke of Mantua in Rigoletto with Island City Opera, Marcello in Leoncavallo's La bohème and Alwa in Lulu in the acclaimed West Edge Opera production, Pinkerton in Madama Butterfly with Livermore Valley Opera, Lenski in Evgeny Onegin with Opera Idaho, and Edgardo in Lucia di Lammermoor and Manrico in Il trovatore with Island City Opera. Alex also covered Pollione in Norma, Pinkerton in Madama Butterfly, and Ahab in Moby-Dick with the Dallas Opera.

He is an alumnus of the Merola Opera Program and was an Apprentice with the Santa Fe Opera. A New York native, Boyer holds degrees from Boston University and the Manhattan School of Music.
