Erica
Row is a captivating and musically engaging young soprano with a striking look
perfectly suited to the ingénue roles she undertakes.
Hailed by the Seattle Post-Intelligencer as “extraordinary”,
with a “beautifully clear and agile voice”, and the Tacoma News Tribune
for her “facile technique and clear-sighted musicality”, she is noted for
her intelligent interpretations and well-rounded musicianship. She was
recently heard singing selections from Tamara Kurdadze’s “Confession” at
Carnegie Hall’s Weill Recital Hall in April 2005.
Ms.
Row delights in both opera and concert repertoire. She has recently been heard
in Haydn’s Lord Nelson Mass and Handel’s Dixit
Dominus with the Hartford Chorale and Hartford Symphony Orchestra. Other
recent performances include Schoenberg’s Pierrot
Lunaire with the Mannes College Pierrot Ensemble and Suor Genovieffa in Suor
Angelica at Mannes College, and the role of Yeyette in Steven
Sullivan’s Josephine with
the Center for Contemporary Opera in New York City.
Ms.
Row, a native of Tacoma, Washington, recently earned her Master’s degree in
Vocal Performance from the Mannes College of Music in New York. Her education
began at Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma, Washington where she studied
Vocal Performance and was the winner of the 1996 Tacoma Opera Guild
Competition.
She
has appeared in music festivals at the Goethe Institute, the Liederkranz
Society, and Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall, and has been heard in many
classical and contemporary works and musical theater roles throughout the
country. Her roles include Pamina (The Magic Flute), Adele (Die Fledermaus),
Lauretta (Gianni Schicchi), and
Belinda (Dido and Aeneas).
Ms.
Row resides in New York City with her husband Shane Row, a professional
drummer.
