Opera News has applauded American soprano Liz Lang for her "comedic timing and clear resonant tone." Known for her crossover abilities throughout multiple genres, the 23/24 season brings some exciting new opportunities including a sold-out salon night hosted by opera great James Morris, and an evening with the Equinox Orchestra singing swing standards in iconic historical Savannah venues. Ms. Lang appears as a soloist with Voices of Ascension in their Gala at New York’s fabulous Fabbri Mansion and as the soprano soloist in their performance of Mozart’s Requiem. She travels to Venice, Italy for an artist residency and writing retreat to begin work on her newest show and brings her acclaimed recital Prohibition to New York featuring classical and jazz music previously censored in a variety of ways. Liz is delighted to make her repertoire debut singing Barber’s Knoxville: Summer of 1915 with Riverside Orchestra and her company debut with MasterVoices for the NYC premiere of Doug Varone’s To My Arms / Restore, led by Ted Sperling.

Last season, Liz was delighted to make her Off-Broadway debut as Glinda in Wicked/Wasted and her role debut as Mimì in La Bohème with The Savannah Voice Festival. She appeared as the soprano soloist in Haydn's Lord Nelson Mass with Voices of Ascension, an anniversary party for Coca-Cola at the Statue of Liberty with her jazz-fusion band, a masterclass with Frederica von Stade, and a multi-genre, self-curated recital entitled I’m not mad exploring the psychology of Ophelia. Other recent highlights include a reading of a new musical by Jack Coen about intergalactic aliens, a Javanese Purim spiel with Gamelan Son of Lion, her role debut as Fiona in Brigadoon, and a cover performance of Mendelssohn’s Elijah at Carnegie Hall with the Oratorio Society of New York.

Liz made her professional debut as Iris in Opera Omaha's production of Handel's Semele in April 2016 and her Lincoln Center debut in a new production of La Traviata with the Philharmonic Orchestra of New York as Annina and the Violetta u/s in March 2018. Other operatic highlights include Violetta in La Traviata, Blanche in Dialogues of the Carmelites, Atalanta in Serse, Edilia in Almira, Papagena in Die Zauberflöte, soloist in Handel's L'Allegro, and in Ben Yarmolinsky's secular oratorio, The Constitution, with Vertical Player Repertory as part of New York Opera Fest. Ms. Lang has been a recitalist and soloist at Carnegie Hall, the Juilliard School, with Voices of Ascension, Oratorio Society of New York, St. Bartholomew’s Choir and Orchestra, with Grammy® award winner Paul O’Dette, The New American Songbook Orchestra, The Patchwork Project, the Salzburg Festival in Austria, and throughout the Tuscan region of Italy.
