Harold Haugh Light Opera Vocal Competition

Harold Haugh Light Opera Vocal Competition The Harold Haugh Light Opera Vocal Competition was formed to honor one of the finest Oratorio Tenors and stage performers of the last century.

Harold Alberto Haugh was born in Cleveland, Ohio in 1905 and studied at Hiram College and Union Theological Seminary, mentored by organist Clarence Dickinson. He performed as a tenor soloist in over 250 performances of Handel’s Messiah, 80 performances of the St. Matthew’s Passion, and 22 consecutive yearly appearances with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. He well deserved the title of “Mr. Oratorio”

and the recognition by Thompson Stone as America’s foremost oratorio tenor of the period. Upon retirement in 1960, he became active with the Ann Arbor Civic Theater, he directed productions for the University of Michigan Gilbert and Sullivan Society, and starred in six productions for the Comic Opera Guild. Educator for 34 years, performer and respected family man, Harold Haugh died in May of 2000, at the age of 94.
