Singer Behind the Song: Jessica Muirhead
Presented by the Opera West Society
We start the season with an audience favourite: The Singer Behind the Song series. This year we bring Jessica Muirhead to Vancouver. Jessica is a British-Canadian soprano who has appeared at many leading opera houses in Europe, North America and Asia. She is multi-talented taking on title roles from Alice in Falstaff to Violetta in La Traviata while also being an active concert soloist and a writer for Opera Canada magazine! In this intimate presentation you will get to know the artist and gain an insight into her life as an opera singer through an interview. Before the interview, you will hear Jessica Muirhead perform some of her opera favourites! A masterclass featuring members of the UBC Opera ensemble will close the evening.
