Our next concert features a soprano new to Apollo's Cabinet audiences, and we are thrilled to be working with her. Joëlle Harvey will be singing arias by Handel and a Cantata by Buxtehude. She has a marvellous, rich, and powerful voice and you will soon know, as we do, that she is destined for a successful solo career.

A native of Bolivar, New York, soprano Joélle Harvey is quickly becoming recognized as one of the most exciting young talents of her generation. As a member of Glimmerglass Opera’s 2007 Young American Artists Program, Ms. Harvey performed the role of Cupid in Offenbach’s Orpheus in the Underworld to great critical acclaim and covered soprano Lisa Saffer in the role of La Princesse in Philip Glass’ Orphée.

Ms. Harvey’s future engagements include Barbarina in Le Nozze di Figaro with The Dallas Opera, Flora in The Turn of the Screw with Portland Opera, Cupid in Orpheus in the Underworld with Eugene Opera, Poppea in L’incoronazione di Poppea at CCM, and Miranda in the Monte Carlo premiere of Tod Machover’s new opera Death and the Powers.
