Celebrated opera singer Isabel Leonard will join the Asheville Symphony Monday, March 16, through Monday, March 23, for A Celebration of Voice, the Symphony’s second Artist Residency. A three-time GRAMMY Award winner, Leonard’s first time performing in Asheville will include multiple appearances and opportunities for engaging with the community. “This is a very rare chance for our community to hear an exceptional, truly world-class opera singer,” says Darko Butorac, the Asheville Symphony’s music director. “She is a star at the world’s most prestigious opera houses—including the Metropolitan Opera. Her performances feature a combination of grace, elegance and vocal mastery that is deeply captivating and inspiring.”
