Just Missed
safronia at The Lyric Opera
Jeff Parker astounded audiences as Bossman in the Lyric Opera’s world premiere of safronia by avery r. young and directed by Timothy Douglas.
The Chicago Tribune said Parker was “surely doing the most vocally challenging role of his long career”.
While Third Coast Review said “Parker enters the stage singing a smooth falsetto that leans into Marvin Gaye and Eddie Kendricks. I have heard some fantastic "blue-eyed" soul, but not in the soul falsetto range… Parker's singing made it more impactful.”
This deeply poignant piece was performed as a limited engagement in April 2026.
