“THE RICHLY VIBRANT, DEEPLY EXPRESSIVE VOICE OF BOTTOMS, HER OPULENT SOUND BLOOMING…STUNNING VOCAL BEAUTY AND ABSOLUTE SINCERITY OF EXPRESSION”

CHICAGO CLASSICAL REVIEW

 

Renowned for her "superb vocal and dramatic chops" (Opera News) mezzo-soprano Amanda Lynn Bottoms continues to captivate audiences this season. She will perform Ottone/Fortune in several productions of Yuval Sharon’s Comet/Poppea, in collaboration with Anthony Roth Costanzo, AMOC, The Industry and Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra & Chorale. She will return to the Akron Symphony Orchestra for performances of Mahler's Symphony No. 2 and debut with Detroit Opera.
