Mexican tenor Ernesto Ramırez is garnering rave reviews for his distinctive Italianate sound, “wonderfully fluid line and brilliant high notes,” combined with his “suave, nuanced lyricism.” Ernesto debuted as Pinkerton in Madama Butterfly with Mexico’s Opera de Leon, Rodolfo in La bohème with Pacific Northwest Opera, and sang his first Don Jose with Opera Kelowna’s Carmen, and in concert with Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony.

His “resplendent tenor” has been heard in performances of Verdi’s Requiem with Brott Music Festival, Beethoven's Ninth Symphony with the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra, Niagara Symphony, and Kingston Symphony. In 2022, Ernesto starred as Don Jose in concert performances of Carmen with Orchestre Classique de Montreal, and debuted as Ralph Rackstraw with Vancouver Opera in their updated production of HMS Pinafore. 
Ernesto has performed to great acclaim for audiences in France, Germany, Switzerland, Canada, and the United States. Prior to the pandemic, Ernesto covered the Duke in Edmonton Opera’s Rigoletto, and was the tenor soloist in Handel’s Messiah with Hamilton’s Bach Elgar Choir. Ernesto sang Stefano in John Estacio’s acclaimed opera Filumena with Calgary Opera.
Opera companies in Zurich, Quebec, Montreal, Tel-Aviv, and Mexico City have welcomed him as a guest artist in their Opera Galas. He also performed at The 150th Anniversary of Puccini, a gala hosted by Simonetta Puccini.
