MEET OUR TEACHER

Tenor José Iñiguez

Jose is a rare talent, blending the beauty of opera and mariachi bolero music into a truly mesmerizing performance. His vocal range and power have been described as spine-tingling, leaving audiences breathless. In recognition of his exceptional talent and contributions to music, Jose was nominated for the Governor's Individual Heritage award in 2015 and named a Latin Music artist by Univision in 2016.

At his ENCANTO concerts, held at the renowned Benaroya Hall in Seattle, Jose and his fellow artists take audiences on a cultural journey, pairing the ethereal beauty of opera aria and classical piano with the charm of mariachi bolero. His work in the community has been equally impressive, earning him a Central Washington University Leader-under-40 Award in 2017, an honorary Seattle Metropolitan Latino Chamber of Commerce Leader Award in 2018, and a Mid-Columbia Libraries & Tri-Cities Latino Community Network Latino leader award in 2019.

Jose's commitment to education is also evident through his establishment of three Iniguez Family Scholarship Endowments at Columbia Basin College, Central Washington University, and Eastern Washington University. He has even dedicated proceeds from his concerts to support students' dreams of attending higher education. Jose's work and story have been featured on PBS and continue to inspire countless individuals.

As a teacher, Jose brings his expertise to young students, focusing on breathing and diaphragm work, as well as the mechanics of singing. He has a particular interest in working with bass and lower-voiced students, making the program truly unique and invaluable.
