Hailed by the San Francisco Chronicle for her “elegant” soprano, both “incisive and tender,” Suzanne Karpov is quickly distinguishing herself as one of the country’s leading young sopranos. Ms. Karpov recently made her Carnegie Hall debut as the soprano soloist in Poulenc’s Gloria with DCINY, and performed recently with the New York Philharmonic as part of the Handel and Haydn Society in their annual Messiah. Past season oratorio highlights as soprano soloist include performances of Handel’s Messiah with the Washington Bach Consort, American Bach Soloists, Richmond Symphony Orchestra, the National Philharmonic, and the Washington National Opera Orchestra at the Kennedy Center, as well as soprano soloist in Haydn’s The Creation with the UC-Davis Symphony Orchestra. Operatic highlights include performances with Washington National Opera, Boston Early Music Festival, Light Opera of New Jersey, and the New Hampshire Music Festival.
