Thank you all so much for following me and staying in touch via social media. It really makes me feel closer to you to be able to share this newsletter with you every few months. Hope you enjoy! I have a wonderful summer project with the Bayerische Staatsoper, Rameau’s opera LES INDES GALANTES, which promises to be a whole new experience for me and for Munich. We are singing, dancing, and trilling a whole lot in this lovely French baroque work. August brings us to stunning Lake Tahoe, where I’ll give two brief concerts of arias and Exultate Jubilate by Mozart. Then for my first engagement this fall, I am so excited to make my debut with the Washington National Opera as Susanna! |

Opernarien statt Börsenkrach • June 26, 2016 “Auch Lisette Oropesa ist von der Allerheiligen-Hofkirche schließlich herübergekommen. Sie und ihre beiden amerikanischen Kollegen, Matthew Grills und John Moore, geben Arien und Duette von Donizetti, Leoncavallo, Puccini und Rossini zum Besten. Besonders Lisette Oropesa singt sich mit ihrer glasklaren Sopranstimme in die Herzen des Publikums.” Jennifer Gaschler • Süddeutsche Zeitung |

Reflections The stage is a safe, scary, sacred space to me as an artist. But it is only that way because of real life off of the stage. I spent the last couple of weeks of May out west, hiking through Colorado, Utah, Nevada, and California. It was a life changing experience. I felt so very blessed to be alive in this beautiful world, and I felt so small compared to the vast earth and sky that seems to go on forever in that part of the country. Ever since my first experiences out west, in Arizona and New Mexico, I have made a vow to visit there as often as possible, because there is something about that land that absolutely restores my soul; it is safe, scary, and sacred.
