Hello! My name is Arden Hearne and I am an opera singer in the bay area.
I have been performing since I was a child. Although I like to think I had a natural musical ability that my parents were inspired to nourish, my parents actually only put me in theatre classes because t-ball and soccer were not the right fit. Growing up in Oklahoma, I sang my fair share in church and can still tear up a country song. I’ve always enjoyed singing all genres of music but my love of opera came while I was pursing my undergraduate degree. I ended up pursuing a bachelors in musical theatre from Oklahoma City University and now I have a masters degree in opera performance from San Francisco Conservatory of Music. The reason why I made the switch to fully pursue opera was because I love the challenge that the opera vocal technique poses and I also deeply enjoy how visceral the storytelling becomes once adding such an athletic way of singing.
