Welcome!
Are you seeking a lower-voiced opera singer/classical singer for your production or event, in France or beyond? I am a contralto singer from New Zealand, now based in Paris. In my home country of New Zealand, I completed a Master of Music in Classical Singing at the University of Auckland and a Post-Graduate Certificate in Theatre Studies at the University of Waikato. I have experience singing opera, oratorio, art song, musical theatre/jazz/pop, contemporary classical, folk and traditional songs, songs for special events (such as Christmas parties) and more!
I have a particular passion for art song. As a poet myself, I greatly enjoy singing some of the great poetic texts, set to music by masterful composers such as Schubert, Debussy, and Britten. These songs can be selected to suit a particular topic or occasion, or presented in the context of a recital. Generally, these works are performed with piano accompaniment. However, I also perform art song/vocal chamber music repertoire with other instruments and groupings.
Prior to 2022, I was singing as a mezzo-soprano; my operatic repertoire history reflects this. My aria and role lists are being refreshed to suit my new Fach (voice type). As a contralto, oratorio repertoire is a specialty (fortunately, I already sang many of the great contralto oratorio roles, such as Handel’s Messiah, Vivaldi’s Gloria, and plenty of Bach). I also perform and premiere more recent works, including by living composers.
