Faculty & Staff Profile
Daniel Fridley
Adjunct Faculty

Daniel Fridley, bass, received his Doctor of Musical Arts degree in the spring of 2021 from the Case Western Reserve University Historical Performance Practice program, studying with Ellen Hargis and Jesse Blumberg. He graduated in 2017 from the Cleveland Institute of Music with a Master of Music degree in Vocal Performance. His “spotless, resonant bass” (Cleveland Classical) lends itself well to both early music and opera.

Bach’s Coffee Cantata (Wyoming Baroque); Dottore Grenvil in Verdi’s La traviata (The Cleveland Opera); Jesus in J.S.
