“A talent of the first order” (Tom Cipullo), baritone Scott Hetz Clark has captivated audiences around the world with his versatile vocal talent and showmanship. He has brought his "youthful and powerful baritone voice" (Thüringische Landeszeitung) to many notable performances, including Mayo Buckner in Tom Cipullo's Mayo Buckner: A Life Interrupted, Don Giovanni in Don Giovanni, Papageno in Die Zauberflöte, Sulpice in La fille du régiment, Sid in Albert Herring, Figaro in Le nozze di Figaro, Sweeney Todd in Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, and Don Adrubale in the rarely performed Ricci Brothers' comedy Crispin e la Comare, in which he won praise for his performance.  Scott’s most recent engagements include his Maryland Opera debut, where he sang the roles of Imperial Commissioner and Yamadori in Madama Butterfly, and his return to  Rose Theater at Lincoln Center, where he covered the title role of Don Giovanni with Teatro Nuovo. Last year, Scott returned to the historic Seagle Festival in upstate New York where he worked directly with composer Tom Cipullo, earning significant praise. He has collaborated with Sarasota Opera, Opera Baltimore, Opera Naples, Maryland Opera, Bel Cantanti Opera, Loudoun Lyric Opera,  Prague Summer Nights Festival, Castleton Festival, and Lyric Opera Studio Weimar.

A dynamic multigenre artist, Scott Hetz Clark has quickly become one of the most recognizable and sought-after jazz voices in the DMV. He has built an impressive footprint performing at restaurants, wineries, breweries, jazz clubs, lounges, and concert venues throughout Virginia, Washington, D.C., and Maryland. A regular soloist at Carbonara in Arlington, VA—recently ranked as one of the Top 25 restaurants in the country according to Newsweek Magazine—Scott is known for pairing smooth, elegant vocals with polished phrasing and a classic baritone glow. He finished as a Top 3 Finalist in both the 2025 and 2026 Best of Loudoun Awards in the highly competitive “Best Local Band/Musician” category, marking him as one of the region’s most sought-after performers, and has been featured in articles and publications across the region, including Loudoun Times-Mirror and Middleburg Country Zest and Style Magazine. Equally comfortable fronting large ensembles and intimate combos, he headlined the Tarara Summer Concert Series in Lucketts, VA with Big Night, the premier big band of Loudoun County, and frequently performs with other bands, combos, and jams in the area.
