Connecticut Lyric Opera presents:
Heather Petri, contralto
Heather Petri has been hailed as “a true contralto, with a big, deep, resonant projection that can fill a hall” by the New London Day and is a familiar voice throughout the Northeast. In 2019, she made her Carnegie Hall solo debut in Handel’s Messiah with the New York Oratorio Society. As a soloist, she has appeared with the American Symphony Orchestra, Voices of Ascension, Sacred Music in a Sacred Space, and the New Orchestra of Washington. She performs frequently with the NY Philharmonic, Musica Sacra, the Choir of St Ignatius Loyola, the Cathedral Choir of Saint John the Divine, Musica Viva, and Essential Voices USA. Her operatic roles include Mary (die Fliegende Holländer), Baba (The Medium), Arnalta (L’incoronazione di Poppea), Marcellina (Le Nozze di Figaro), Larina (Eugene Onegin), and Annina (die Rosenkavalier). Heather has been a member of the opera chorus at both Bard Summerscape and the Princeton Festival, as well as New York City Opera.
