Described as “a joy to watch and hear” (Daily Camera), soprano Ashley Fabian is quickly garnering recognition for her artistry in both comedic and dramatic roles. She has been consistently praised for her “silvery tone” and “smooth legato”, which bring elegance to her performances of the lyric coloratura repertoire.
Upcoming performances include a return to Des Moines Metro Opera in their production of The Magic Flute, Cinderella in Into the Woods with Holy City Arts & Lyric Opera, Barbarina in The Marriage of Figaro with Seattle Opera, and Ginevra in Ariodante with Opera NEO. She will also compete as a Regional Finalist in the Metropolitan Opera Laffont Competition.
In concert Ms. Fabian has appeared as the Soprano soloist for Brahm’s Ein deutsches Requiem with the Erie Philharmonic and has also been a soloist in Handel’s Dixit Dominus and Messiah, Faure’s Requiem, Charpentier’s Te Deum, Vivaldi’s Gloria, and a fully staged production of Bach’s St. Matthew Passion.
Ms. Fabian has been the recipient of awards from the Metropolitan Opera National Council, the Orpheus Vocal Competition, Central City Opera, and the Grand Concours Franco-American Competition. In addition, she was a finalist in the Tenor Viñas Competition, Mildred Miller Competition, Cooper-Bing Competition, and Piccola Opera Competition. She holds a M.M. from The University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, and a B.A. and Artist Diploma from The College of Charleston.
