He also appears in Hamburg as Florestan in Fidelio. In the summer of 2018, Cutler will sing his first performances of Bacchus in Ariadne auf Naxos at the Aix-en-Provence Festival.

Cutler is a native of Adel, Iowa and an alumnus of Luther College and the Metropolitan Opera’s Lindemann Young Artists Development Program. The winner of the 2005 Richard Tucker Award, as well as earlier Study and Career Grants from the Tucker Foundation, Cutler began his career in the Bel Canto and Lyric Tenor Repertoire. He was praised internationally for his performances in all the major tenor roles of Mozart, as Edgardo in Lucia di Lammermoor, Arturo in I Puritani and Alfredo in La Traviata, as well in the French lyric repertoire as Nadir in Les Pêcheurs de Perles and Roméo in Roméo et Juliette. He scored a triumph as Raoul in Les Huguenots at La Monnaie in Brussels, after which he began his development into the jugendlich repertoire under the tutelage of Michael Paul, who remains his vocal mentor today.
