Cameron J. Rolling, bass-baritone, is increasingly recognized for his "mellifluous voice" (Classical Voice San Francisco) in the spheres of operatic, oratorio, symphonic, and recital performance. He is a resident artist with the Detroit Opera this season where he performed the role of Marchese d'Obigny in Verdi's La Traviata.

The 24/25 season included Rolling's symphonic debut with the Savannah Philharmonic as the bass soloist for Beethoven's Ninth Symphony under the baton of Jonathan Rush. He was also the guest artist with the Kansas City-based chamber ensemble, Bach Aria Soloists, for their annual Holiday Concert. Cameron spent the summer of 2024 as a Young Artist for the Glimmerglass Festival where he performed the role of Sylvano in Cavalli’s La Calisto and covered the roles of Mr. Lister/Karl Marx/Voiceover/Solomon Weil/Witness #8 in Kevin Puts’ Elizabeth Cree.
