Testimonial

"There was one outstanding performance by Mark S. Doss as Scarpia... Doss has made his career in bass roles, but he commands the top range for Scarpia; with resonant, wide-open tones he sang every note of a part that is often barked. Subtle he wasn't, but Scarpia isn't a notably subtle character. Doss also has the physique and imagination to dramatize the element of sexual appetite and danger; most Scarpias, portly and aging, require some suspension of disbelief on this point."

— Boston Globe

(As Scarpia in Tosca with Boston Lyric Opera)
