Following nine years as an ensemble member at the Bayerische Staatsoper in Munich, Irish tenor Dean Power is now a guest artist on the international stage. He was born in Clarecastle, Ireland, and studied in Dublin with Mary Brennan and repetiteur Mairead Hurley at the Royal Irish Academy of Music and D.I.T. Conservatory of Music and Drama. He graduated from the Bayerische Staatsoper Opera Studio at the end of the 2011/12 season before becoming a full member of the ensemble.

Recent projects include debut at Teatro Real Madrid as Graf Elemer (Arabella), Salzburg Festival as Gherardo (Gianni Schicchi) and a venditore (Il Tabarro), at Easter Festival in Salzburg as Heinrich der Schreiber (Tannhäuser), and his return to Irish National Opera for a role debut as Ferrando (Così fan tutte). He also joined the Dudamel Foundation to sing Jaquino in a unique semi-staged performance of Fidelio under the baton of Gustavo Dudamel. The performance was created especially for both deaf and hearing audiences.

The 2023/24 season sees Dean Power join the Cork Opera House as associate artist of Cara O'Sullivan, with performances such as Tamino (The Magic Flute), a programme of arias for their Cultural Evening, a Christmas concert and an opening gala concert. He also sings Verdi’s Messa di Requiem at Cadogan Hall and in Limerick and Maynooth, in Ireland, and performs the world premiere of new songs commissioned in Munich.
