Juliet Schlefer is a Brooklyn-born lyric soprano currently pursuing a master’s degree in vocal performance at the University of Michigan School of Music Theater and Dance, class of 2024. In November, she is beyond thrilled to make her Power Center debut as the vixen Bystrouška in UofM’s production of The Cunning Little Vixen under the direction of Tara Faircloth and Kirk Severtson. This spring, Juliet created a joint recital starring herself and a homemade larger-than-life sized robot. Both performers, human and wooden alike, shared the stage to sing repertoire ranging from Strozzi to Rachmaninoff and Babbitt to Lang, all while learning to fill and take up their own personal space. This summer she was overjoyed to be a Music Academy of the West Studio Artist, joining the company chorus in Eugene Onegin. In fall of 2021, Juliet was thrilled to perform as the soprano soloists for both Haydn’s Theresienmesse and Philip Glass’s Music in 12 Parts. In summer of 2021, she was honored to return to Opera Neo to perform the role of Barbarina and to cover Susanna in Le nozze di Figaro.
