Andrea Moore

 has brought her “creamy voiced soprano” to the operatic stage with a number of roles to her credit. Ms. Moore recently returned from a successful season abroad performing with the Hamburger Kammeroper in Hamburg Germany. There she sang the roles of Eurydike, Venus and Juno in Offenbach’s Orpheus in der Unterwelt. She performed the title role in the world premiere of Zachary Wadsworth’s opera Venus and Adonis at the Long Leaf Opera Festival where “Moore sang Venus with warm, bright tone, powerful in climactic passages and mellow in her lament.” In 2005 she sang Die Notarin in Intermezzo under David Zinman’s baton at the Aspen Music Festival. Other notable credits include Semira in Artaxerxes with Acanthus Chamber Opera, Zerlina with the Opera Company of North Carolina, Lauretta (Gianni Schicchi), Countess Almaviva, Micaela, Antonia and the First Lady at Yale Opera, Frasquita, Nellie (Summer and Smoke), and Madeline/Isabel (Face on the Barroom Floor) with Central City Opera, as well as Massenet’s title character of Manon, Anne Trulove (The Rake's Progress), and The Fox (The Cunning Little Vixen) with Peabody Opera Theater. Her voice can be heard from time to time on NPR’s World of Opera singing Nellie in Hoiby’s Summer and Smoke live from Central City Opera.

Equally at home on the concert stage, Ms. Moore was heard singing the soprano solo in the Rossini Stabat Mater, appearing with some of the most revered orchestras in South America including the Orquesta Filarmonica de Buenos Aires at the prestigious Teatro Colon, the Orquesta Sinfonica Brasileira at Rio de Janeiro’s Teatro Municipal, Orquesta Sinfonica da Bahia and the Orquesta Clasica de Santiago. She has sung in recital several times with the Richard Tucker Foundation in New York City, the Munich State Museum for Egyptian Art and at the Schloss Oberradkersburg Festival in Gornja Radgona, Slovenia. Tim Smith of the Baltimore Sun praised Ms. Moore for her performance on the Evolution Contemporary Music Series for “uncovering the interior beauty of scores by Joseph Schwantner and, especially, Osvaldo Golijov.”

Among many distinguished honors, in the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions Ms. Moore won Third Prize in the Southeast Regional Finals and was twice named North Carolina District Winner. Additionally, she was named the Opera Company of North Carolina’s 2005 Emerging Artist of the Year, and she was honored with the Yale School of Music Alumni Award two years in a row.

A sought after teacher of classical singing, Ms. Moore is a teacher at the International Opera and Song Academy held in conjunction with the Hamburg Conservatory of Music in residence at Schloss Oberradkersburg in Gornja Radgona, Slovenia and is a member of the voice faculty at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.  She also has a private voice studio in Chapel Hill, NC.

Ms. Moore is an alumna of the High School program in voice at the North Carolina School of the Arts. She holds a Bachelor of Music from the Peabody Conservatory of Music at The Johns Hopkins University  as well as a Master of Music and an Artist Diploma from Yale University School of Music.
