AngelBlue

Angel Blue has emerged in recent seasons as one of the most influential sopranos before the public today. The two-time Grammy Award winner, 2020 Beverly Sills Award recipient, and the 2022 Richard Tucker Award winner is celebrated worldwide for her honeyed soprano and affecting deliveries of many of the most beloved roles in the operatic repertory, such as Violetta in Verdi's La Traviata, Bess in Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess, Mimí in Puccini’s La Bohéme, and Destiny/Loneliness/Greta in Terrence Blanchard’s Fire Shut Up in My Bones.

The 2024/25 season is one of Ms. Blue’s most impressive to date, with a staggering itinerary of operatic title roles and concert programs on acclaimed stages worldwide. Beginning in London with the hugely popular Last Night of the Proms, Ms. Blue returns to her home stage at the Metropolitan Opera, where she spends a major portion of her season. In the fall, she plays Margarita Xirgu in Osvaldo Golijov’s first opera, Ainadamar, and in two separate stints over the winter and spring, she makes her long[1]anticipated debut as Aida conducted by Yannick Nézet-Séguin. Maestro Nézet-Séguin also plays a vital role in Ms. Blue’s concert schedule, when she joins the conductor and the Rotterdam Philharmonic on tour in the Netherlands, Germany, and France. The soprano makes two company debuts, as Mimì in the Bayerische Staatsoper’s production of La Boheme, and as the titular role in Verdi’s Luisa Miller – also a role debut. She appears twice at Carnegie Hall, first in recital with the legendary pianist Lang Lang, and again with the Met Opera Orchestra and Maestro Nézet-Séguin. Concert engagements include Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony with Michael Tilson Thomas and the Houston Symphony Orchestra, a solo recital at the Los Angeles Opera, and Aida in concert at the Baltimore Symphony conducted by Jonathon Heyward.

Angel Blue has performed in over forty countries including Hungary, Kazakhstan, India, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey, South Korea, China, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Russia, Brazil, and Mexico. She was raised in California and completed her musical studies at UCLA. She lives in New Jersey with her husband and son
