While there Tony was selected to perform the world premier of Everyone Sang, a recently found orchestral song by B. Britten. Recently, Tony completed his Doctor of Musical Arts degree at University of Maryland, studying with François Loup. He is currently on the voice faculty of Towson University of Baltimore, MD.
