Quickly gaining attention as a lyric coloratura soprano with exceptional bel canto technique, Aubry Ballarò made her European debut as Lucia in Lucia di Lammermoor in 2022 with State Opera Stara Zagora in Bulgaria, and later that season sang the role of Madame Herz in Mozart’s The Impresario with the Princeton Festival. In 2023, Ms. Ballarò returned to State Opera Stara Zagora for her debut as Violetta Valéry in La Traviata. Soon after, she joined Opera Columbus to debut the role of Gilda in Rigoletto, and reprised the role in August of 2023 with Opera in the Park, Portland. In 2024, she will return to Columbus for Mozart’s Great Mass in C Minor with the Columbus Symphony, make a house and role debut with Opera Grand Rapids as Konstanze in Die Entführung aus dem Serail, return to perform the role of Fiordiligi in Così fan tutte with the Princeton Festival, and will debut various concert works internationally.
