Brooklyn-based Meredith Wohlgemuth is a recent graduate of The Juilliard School and studies with teacher to the greats, Marlena Malas. She arrives at this year’s competition with a passion for contemporary as well as traditional art song.
The American soprano was a 2021 winner of the Metropolitan Opera Laffont National Council Auditions New York District, after winning an Encouragement Award the previous year.
Wohlgemuth can already claim some of opera’s most coveted soprano roles, like Gretel in Hänsel and Gretel, Despina in Così fan tutte, and Tytania in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The rising star sang vital roles in Opera Naples’ productions of La traviata and West Side Story.
