Ramón Iriarte (born July 25, 1930, in Paris, France) is a Venezuelan-born Canadian baritone opera singer.
Due to World War II and the political situation in France the life for children was not easy, his mother feared his younger brother was starting to get mentally ill from the constant air-raid sirens.
The big jump in his career happened two years later when he got the main role as Count Luna in Il trovatore, by Giuseppe Verdi.
As Claudio in Montero's Virginia, and roles in L'amico Fritz, Carmen, Aida, Pagliacci, Madama Butterfly, and Bastien und Bastienne had become part of Iriarte's wide music repertoire full of success.
In the mid-1990s Ramon Iriarte left Venezuela with his family, wife and three children to live in Canada, where he occasionally sings.
