Olivia Boen, soprano Chicago-born soprano Olivia Boen is equally at home in traditional and contemporary repertoire. As a recipient of the Frank Huntington Beebe Fund for Musicians Grant, she is currently a postgraduate student at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London. On the operatic stage, she has appeared in leading roles for Alcina and Serse (Händel), Don Pasquale (Donizetti), Gianni Schicchi (Puccini), and Les Mamelles de Tirésias (Poulenc). This summer, she will make her European debut as Die Stimme des Falken in Die Frau Ohne Schatten (Strauss) under the baton of Maestro Gergiev at the Verbier Festival, where she will also sing Erste Dame in the Verbier Festival Academy’s production of Die Zauberflöte (Mozart). In 2016, Olivia was the youngest Gerdine Young Artist of the season at the Opera Theatre of Saint Louis, where she performed selected scenes with the Saint Louis Symphony in their Center Stage Gala. A frequent recitalist, she was a 2018 Vocal Fellow at Ravinia’s Steans Music Institute. This past spring, she made her Wigmore Hall debut as a member of the ‘Side by Side’ project with The Prince Consort, an innovative collective of singers and pianists pushing the interpretive boundaries of art songs, and collaborated on two outreach recitals at St. Luke’s Church hosted by the London Symphony Orchestra. Equally committed to bringing modern compositions to life, she is a 2019 recipient of the Tracy Chadwell Memorial Award for her interpretations of works by Judith Wier and Thomas Adès. On Oberlin’s 150th Anniversary Tour, Olivia performed the North American premiere of Jesse Jones’ One Bright Morning with the Contemporary Music Ensemble, a recording of which is due to be released on the Oberlin Music record label in 2019. Olivia has participated in masterclasses with such renowned artists as Renée Fleming, Eric Owens, Helmut Deutsch, and Marilyn Horne. Olivia was awarded the 2018 First Place Lynne Cooper Harvey Prize at the Musicians Club of Women in Chicago and the 2017 overall winner for the Arden J. Yockey Scholarship for Performance at the Tuesday Musical Competition. This upcoming autumn, Olivia will continue her training on Guildhall’s esteemed Opera Course.
