Diana McVey

Soprano

This young, versatile soprano is an artist whose consummate skills as both a singer and an actress have made her highly visible in opera, oratorio and as soloist with symphony orchestras. The beauty of her voice and intelligent artistry has also made her a much sought after artist for both the standard repertoire and new works. She has appeared as soloist with the Florida West Coast Symphony, the Longwood Symphony, the Rhode Island Philharmonic, the Albany Symphony, and the Rhode Island Civic Chorale and Orchestra, among others. She has sung leading roles with Opera Columbus, Ocean State Lyric Opera, the Salt Marsh Opera Company, Boston Academy of Music, Rhode Island Philharmonic and Opera Providence. Her many roles include Musetta in La Boheme, Despina in Così Fan Tutte, Constanze in The Abduction from the Seraglio, Adalgisa in Norma, Susanna in The Marriage of Figaro, Olympia in The Tales of Hoffman, and Gretel in Hansel and Gretel to name a few. She was an apprentice artist with both the Sarasota Opera Company, where she covered the role of Olympia in The Tales of Hoffman, and the Lake George Opera Festival where she covered the role of Constanze in The Abduction from the Seraglio. In 2003, Ms. McVey was a finalist in the New England Regional Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions and was heard on WGBH, Boston.

Recent engagements include a Carnegie Hall debut in June 2006 singing Mozart’s Requiem and Coronation Mass, Mendelssohn’s Elijah with the Stonington Choral Society, a concert appearance with the Albany Symphony, a production of L’Italiana in Algieri with the Lake George Opera Festival and a production of La Boheme with the Salt Marsh Opera. Upcoming engagements include a production of La Traviata with the Salt Marsh Opera, an Opera Gala with the Pioneer Valley Symphony, and the Brahm's Requiem and The Four Last Songs of Strauss with the Rhode Island Civic Chorale & Orchestra.
