Lebanese-American tenor KARIM SULAYMAN has garnered international attention as a sophisticated and versatile artist, praised for his “lucid, velvety tenor and pop-star charisma” (BBC Music Magazine). A 2019 GRAMMY® Award winner, he regularly performs on the world’s stages in orchestral concerts and opera, as well as in recital and chamber music. 
 His diverse performing career has included roles with the Drottningholms Slottsteater in Stockholm, Houston Grand, Florentine, Boston Lyric, and New York City Operas; orchestral appearances with the Chicago, Pittsburgh, and National Symphony Orchestras and the Australian Brandenburg Orchestra; and engagements at Hamburg’s Elbphilharmonie, Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, the Kennedy Center, Ravinia Festival, International Bach Festival, the Aspen Music Festival, and the Aldeburgh Festival, as well as the Marlboro Music Festival with Mitsuko Uchida. 
 His growing discography includes his debut solo album, Songs of Orpheus, which was released to international acclaim and was honored with the GRAMMY® Award for Best Classical Solo Vocal Album in 2019. His newest album, Where Only Stars Can Hear Us, debuted at the #1 spot on the Billboard Traditional Classical Chart. 
 Additionally, Karim created a social experiment/performance art piece called I Trust You, designed to build bridges in a divided political climate. A video version of this experiment went “viral” on the internet, and was honored as a prizewinner in the My Hero Film Festival.
