"Known for her comedic chops as well as her mature, poised singing. She commands the stage!"

Victoria has continued her post graduate studies at Manhattan School of Music where she has concentrated on the research of underrepresented composers and librettists in classical music; a subject she holds dearly. This past year, she has had the privilege to work with several composition majors at MSM & perform their original pieces. She plans to hold her post graduate recital at the beginning of May where she will feature several underrepresented composers. Near the end of June, Victoria will join CoOPERAtive to workshop a new opera, A Nearer Mother  by Mack & McGuire as a principal artist. Where she will be performing the main role of Ruth Coker Burkes.

 

April 2024 was quite exciting for Victoria.

Near the end of the month, Victoria held her degree required recital titled, "Was du mir bist?". Journeys of love told through the song cycles, Despite and Still, Op. 41, Barber, Canti della lontananza, Menotti, Vier Lieder, Op. 2, Schoenberg, Six Sonnets by Louïse Labé, Ullmann and Drei Lieder Op. 22, Korngold.
