Reviewers have praised Jason McStoots as having an “alluring tenor voice” (ArtsFuse) and as “the consummate artist, wielding not just a sweet tone but also incredible technique and impeccable pronunciation” (Cleveland Plain Dealer). In 2015 he won a Grammy award in Opera with the Boston Early Music Festival (BEMF) for their recording of works by Charpentier. His recent stage appearances in period-style baroque opera with BEMF include Le Jeu in Les plaisirs de Versailles by Charpentier, Apollo in Monteverdi’s Orfeo, and Eumete and Giove in Monteverdi’s Il ritorno d’Ulisse in patria. Other recent solo performances include Pedrillo in Mozart’s Abduction from the Seraglio, Bach’s Christmas Oratorio and St. Mark Passion with Emmanuel Music, and Monteverdi’s Vespers of 1610 with the Green Mountain Project. He has appeared with Boston Lyric Opera, Pacific MusicWorks, Boston Camerata, TENET, San Juan Symphony, The Bach Ensemble, Pablo Casals Festival, Early Music Guild of Seattle, Tragicomedia, and the Tanglewood Music Center. He is a core member of Blue Heron and can be heard on all their recordings. With BEMF, he appears on recordings of Lully’s Psyché (nominated for a Grammy), Handel’s Acis and Galatea (as Damon), John Blow’s Venus and Adonis (soloist), and Charpentier’s Actéon (as Orphée).
