“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.
