SUMMARY:Spiritual Masterworks of Italian Masters
DESCRIPTION:In Program:\nIl Tramonto………..Ottorino Respighi\nStabat Mater………Giovanni Battista Pergolesi \nCaroline Christopher\, soprano\nAddieRose Brown\, mezzo-soprano \nCHARTER OAK ENSEMBLE\nof the Connecticut Virtuosi Chamber Orchestra\nAdrian Sylveen\, artistic director \nCaroline Christopher is an active\, New England-based soprano who specializes deeply in Early Music. Highly versatile\, she balances her artistry across ensemble\, concert\, and operatic stages\, showcasing a vast vocal repertoire that spans from the Medieval era through the Classical period. She holds a particular artistic passion for historically-informed performance practice\, specifically focusing on the medium of the Baroque chamber cantata to reframe historic works for modern audiences. Christopher earned a Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance and Music History from The Hartt School and a Master of Music in Early Music from McGill University (2026)\, where she co-founded the Medieval trio La Contenance Montréaloise and performed in the North American premiere revival of Rameau’s Les Fêtes de Ramire.\nKnown for her agility and character roles\, her operatic repertoire includes works by Handel\, Rameau\, Eccles\, and Mozart. She has performed across the U.S. and Canada with ensembles such as Arion Orchestre Baroque\, McGill Cappella Antica\, and the Berkshire Opera Chorus\, and currently works as a soprano section leader in Connecticut. \nVirtuosi Opera soloist\, American mezzo-soprano AddieRose Brown brings heartfelt authenticity\, a well-formed high range\, and creative versatility to both operatic and concert stages. Originally drawn to singing through the simplicity and sincerity of Scottish and American folk music\, she seamlessly bridges the worlds of classical opera\, art song\, and contemporary premieres. Her operatic highlights include her mainstage debut with Opera on the James as Suzuki in Madama Butterfly\, Siebel in Faust with Heartbeat Opera\, and Mélisande in Pelléas et Mélisande with dell’Arte Opera Ensemble. She has also performed roles such as Giannetta in Elixir of Love with the New Philharmonic Orchestra\, Olga in Eugene Onegin with Madison Sounds\, and The Spy in Menotti’s Labyrinth with Cambridge Chamber Ensemble. As a resident artist with Teatro Nuovo\, she covered the role of Romeo in I Capuleti e i Montecchi. On the concert stage\, she has appeared at Carnegie Hall and performed as an alto soloist in Mozart’s Coronation Mass and Corigliano’s Fern Hill with the Hudson Valley Singers. Deeply committed to new music\, she was featured in the world premiere of Clarice Jensen’s The Exaltation of Inanna at The Morgan Library. Brown holds a Master of Music from the Bard College Conservatory of Music’s Graduate Vocal Arts Program and a Bachelor of Music from the Eastman School of Music.
