Hailing from Iowa City, Iowa, David Maize has been performing in the North Carolina area for ten years, having made appearances in tandem with The Fletcher Opera Institute as Count Riccardo di Chalais in Gaetano Donizetti’s “Maria di Rohan”, Medoro in Franz Josef Haydn’s “Orlando Paladino,” Cornaccio in John Musto’s “Volpone”, and Brighella in Richard Strauss' “Ariadne auf Naxos.”

Locally and abroad, he has participated in over twenty operas with Piedmont Opera, where he made his debut as Gastone in Giuseppe Verdi’s “La Traviata” in the 22-23 season and as Don Basilio in Mozart’s “Le nozze di Figaro” just this last March. Outside of North Carolina Maize has performed at the Princeton Festival in Benjamin Britten's “Peter Grimes,” Ludwig van Beethoven's “Fidelio” and as soloist with their Baroque Orchestra.

This summer Maize will be traveling to Columbus, Ohio to debut at Opera Project Columbus as Frederic in their production of Gilbert and Sullivan’s “Pirates of Penzance”. Shortly after he will be participating in the International Performing Artist Institute Germany intensive in pursuit of a German audition tour.
