Nicole Leung, soprano
Praised for “her natural warmth matched equally by innate lyricism” (Opera Canada), Canadian soprano Nicole Leung is thrilled to be an Emerging Artist with Opera on the Avalon for the 24/25 season. This summer, she joined the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity in its workshop of The Handmaid’s Tale, singing the role of Ofglen. Recently selected as a laureate of Les Jeunes Ambassadeurs Lyriques for the season, she will be performing in a series of concerts and featured in its 30th Anniversary Gala this October in Montreal. This season, she also makes debuts with the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra as well as with Toronto City Opera, where she will reprise the role of Adina in L’elisir d’amore. She is an alumna of the McPhee Artist Development Program at Calgary Opera, where she spent the past two seasons.
