Soprano Kathleen Echols has been praised for her high-level artistry and brilliant, heart-wrenching, and powerful performances. She has been breaking ground in her international debut performances in the roles of Mimì (La Bohème), Countess Almaviva (Le Nozze di Figaro), Micaëla (Carmen), Lola (Cavalleria Rusticana), Donna Elvira (Don Giovanni), First Woodsprite (Rusalka), First Lady (Die Zauberflöte), and the title role in Puccini’s Suor Angelica.
Kathleen has done significant work with Santa Fe’s Opera West and the Santa Fe Symphony Orchestra, as both a singing artist and director of the children’s chorus. She is highly capable of delivering thrilling solo performances in oratorio, including Haydn’s Creation, Poulenc’s Gloria, and Rossini’s Stabat Mater.
