People

"Michael Hope created excitement the moment he stepped onto the stage…spine tingling …a musical thunderbolt."

-The Ocean City Sentinel

"A polished singer and musician who brings a keen sense of intonation and musicality to his art.... It was clear that this young vocalist had won over his crowd:  the enthusiastic audience's standing ovation was not for an evening of Frank Sinatra's tunes - it was for Michael Hope."

-The Winnipeg Free Press


“Compelling and charismatic… Both Michael Hope and the orchestra gave magnificent performances…” 

-Calgary Action Magazine

"A wonderful voice...I can tell within ten seconds if a performer has what it takes or not; this guy has what it takes!"

-Marvin Hamlisch

There was love in the air on Saturday night at the Kirby Center. Clyde Mitchell and The North-Eastern Pennsylvania Philharmonic, along with vocalist Michael Hope put it there in an evening of signature songs by one of romance’s main provocateurs, Frank Sinatra.“Big City, Blue Eyes and Broadway” was the theme for the evening’s well-calculated program of music by Porter, Gershwin and Sondheim. The result was a sumptuous two hours of silky smooth ballads and vibrant show tunes with each and every one designed to keep the audience in the mood of the holiday weekend.

Al Choman (Times-Shamrock Newspapers) The Scranton Times, February 16, 2003

Sunday's Red Deer Symphony Orchestra concert was called Andrew Lloyd Webber and Friends, indicating that while most of the selections were the work of the British composer, not all of them were. New York, New York, for example, is by the musical team of Fred Ebb and John Kander. But no matter who wrote it, every song on the program was a winner.

That was thanks to the combination of Calgary baritone Michael Hope and the RDSO, under musical director Claude Lapalme. As pointed out by Hope during the evening, more than half the orchestrations for the songs he performed just happened to have been written by the maestro himself. Though Hope has sung this program with several other orchestras, this was the first time with Lapalme and the RDSO.

Michael Hope

Singer Michael Hope is one of today's most compelling pops vocalists. Gifted with a gorgeous baritone voice and impeccable musicianship, he has captivated and charmed audiences in both Canada and the United States. He first gained international recognition as the 1st prize-winner in the Canadian Music Centre’s International Stepping Stones Competition. Since then he has appeared in performances across North America with orchestras or as a solo show. Michael has chosen to perform the best of the Broadway musicals and pop repertoire from the past seventy+ years. His three CDs reflect his love of this genre of music: What A Wonderful World, Bewitched and his Christmas CD entitled Silent Night. 

Michael was recently featured in the television production "Whole Notes" which is broadcast nationally on the Bravo! and PBS television networks. He was also featured in a series of television commercials produced for The Alberta Human Rights Commission's "Help Make Difference" initiative.

A native of Toronto, Michael is a graduate of the prestigious Curtis Institute Of Music in Philadelphia. In addition to spending time with his family, he enjoys watching movies, repairing his vintage 1986 Toyota Camry, and watching Desperate Housewives on Sunday nights!
