Bridget boldly announced a significant fach change this season moving from lyric mezzo-soprano repertoire into a new world of thrilling coloratura and glittering high notes as a coloratura soprano. She presented new repertoire with a concert hosted by The Puccini Society of Dallas singing selections including “Glitter and be Gay” from Berstein’s Candide, the Enrico/Lucia duet from Lucia di Lammermoor, and “Quando m’en vo” from La Bohème.

With “beauty of tone and honesty of feeling,” Bridget made a welcome return to the Fort Worth Opera stage this past season where she “aptly personified and mellifluously sung” the role of Meg in Adamo’s Little Women under the baton of Tyson Deaton and direction of Claire Choquette (The Dallas Morning News). “Clear and assured,” (Opera News), she previously created the role of Toypurina in Fort Worth Opera’s world premiere of Zorro by Hector Armienta. Bridget captivated audiences this spring with her assertive portrayal of Eduige in Opera NEO’s Rodelinda, praised for her “supple, beautifully focused voice” (San Diego Story). Her stay in California was followed by a company and role debut with Oklahoma City’s Painted Sky Opera as Alisa in Lucia di Lammermoor sharing the stage with her husband, baritone Erik Earl Larson as Enrico.

Bridget had the pleasure of collaborating with the Cliburn Foundation and Fort Worth Opera on a special evening with acclaimed composer and pianist Jake Heggie at the Kimbell Art Museum. She performed Heggie’s song cycle What I Miss the Most, originally composed for mezzo-soprano Jamie Barton, featuring poignant poetry by Joyce DiDonato, Patti LuPone, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Sister Helen Prejean, and Kathleen Kelly.

In Summer 2023, Bridget joined The Glimmerglass Festival as a Young Artist, covering the title role of Handel’s Rinaldo. She also performed as an ensemble member in both Puccini’s La Bohème and Gounod’s Roméo et Juliette, and delighted audiences with selections from Rossini, Mozart, Bernstein, and more during Midday Music concerts and various events for festival patrons.

Bridget’s recent performance at Shreveport Opera was a standout, where she made a memorable role debut as the witty and charming Rosina in Il barbiere di Siviglia. Her portrayal was celebrated for its “dazzling coloratura, beautiful lyricism, and Spanish fire!” under the direction of Megan Marino and the baton of Maestro Joe Illick. She also shone as the bubbly Flora Bervoix in Verdi’s La Traviata that same season.
