Filipino countertenor Kyle Sanchez Tingzon has been praised for his “powerful countertenor” (The Wall Street Journal) and his “lovely, plummy voice” (Opera Today). In 2024-25, he returned to the Glimmerglass Festival and made his role debut as Endimione in Cavalli’s La Calisto with a performance that “occupied the stage and ravaged the ear” (Opera News). He made debuts in Munich, Germany, and Gävle, Sweden, as well as a return to New York City as a soloist in John Adams’s El Niño. He also made his debut with Detroit Opera as Goffredo in Rinaldo and returned to American Bach Soloists as a soloist in the concert series “Bach’s Paradise.” 

In 2025-26, Kyle made notable company debuts with Pocket Opera as Oberon in Britten’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, with Opera San Jose as Aestrea in a workshop of the new opera Solaris, and with West Edge Opera in the title role of Handel’s Rinaldo. The season also included ongoing solo and ensemble work with the San Francisco Symphony Chorus, American Bach Soloists, Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra and Chorale, and The Byrd Ensemble.

Kyle earned his graduate and postgraduate degrees in vocal performance from the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, where he sang the title role in Handel’s Giulio Cesare and Ottone in Monteverdi’s L’incoronazione di Poppea. He is first-prize winner of the Handel Aria Competition, third-prize winner of the Loren L. Zachary Society National Vocal Competition, and a Colorado-Wyoming district winner and Rocky Mountain regional finalist in the Metropolitan Opera Laffont Competition.
