Meet Olivia

Soprano Olivia Boen is quickly gaining momentum for the “sun-streaked top of her register” (Chicago Tribune) and “full-bodied, sparkling tone” (Cleveland Classical) on operatic, concert, and recital stages alike.

Plans for the 23/24 season include a return to the Staatsoper Hamburg for her second year in the Opernstudio with performances as Musetta in La bohème, as well as role debuts as Xenia in Boris Godunov, First Niece in Peter Grimes, Barbarina in Le nozze di Figaro, and Giannetta in L’elisir d’amore. On the concert stage, Olivia makes her Elbphilharmonie Großer Saal debut as the title role in Schumann’s secular oratorio Das Paradies und die Peri.
