Lauded for her “theatrical magnetism” American mezzo-soprano Olivia Vote is continuing to garner success across opera and concert stages.

She was recently called upon last minute to sing the Komponist in Ariadne auf Naxos at The Metropolitan Opera. Since joining the roster of the Metropolitan Opera in 2018, Olivia performed Neferneferuaten in their Grammy-winning recording of Ahknaten by Philip Glass, debuted in Rigoletto as Countess Ceprano, covered Charlotte in Werther, and Waltralte in Die Walküre. Last spring saw a return to Washington Choral Arts in D.C. to sing Brahms’s Alto Rhapsody at the National Cathedral.

This season Ms.Vote will sing Zweite Dame in the Metropolitan Operas’ new production of Die Zauberflöte conducted by Natalie Stuztmann and Dorabella in Cosi Fan Tutte with Cedar Rapids Opera. Olivia will be performing with Opera Southwest on a New Years’ Eve Gala, on a concert of operatic favorites with the Las Vegas Symphony, and in a highly anticipated workshop of The Righteous by Gregory Spears and Tracy K. Smith for Santa Fe Opera. She began the season returning to the Metropolitan Opera to sing two performances of Neris in the opening production of Medea with superstar Sondra Radvanovsky and conducted by Carlo Rizzi.

“the undisputed high point of the evening because of the soloist, mezzo-soprano Olivia Vote, whose voice has grown in richness… Vote’s voice shimmered with power across its wide compass

REVIEW 

“In her company debut, mezzo-soprano Olivia Vote was excellent as the bespectacled Composer, who was the picture of frustration and despair at having his work destroyed by a bunch of silly comedians. Vote’s heartfelt aria in praise of music – “Musik ist eine heilige Kunst” (“Music is a holy art”) – was filled with passion and soared effortlessly over the lush orchestra.
