Recent triumphs for Mr. Tracy include his role as the tragic Hans Scholl in the San Francisco production of Zimmerman's Weisse Rose. Joshua Kosman of the San Francisco Chronicle observed, "As Hans Scholl, Dale Tracy displayed a warm, precise tenor that captured both the heroism and the human vulnerability of the role ...an impressive model of how to tackle unfamiliar and daunting fare". Mr. Tracy can be heard as featured soloist on recordings by the San Francisco Symphony Chorus: Voices 1900/2000, Delos, The Grace Cathedral Chorus of Men and Boys: Shepherds and Carols, Songs of The Season, Independent (also on DVD) and in a new work by composer Jerry Gerber: In Praise of Poets, Ottava.
