Mezzo-soprano Rebecca Ringle Kamarei’s performances have brought acclaim for her “outstanding” (Washington Post) voice of "otherworldly luminousness" (The New York Times) on international opera and concert stages. During her 2019-2020 season, she returns to the Metropolitan Opera for productions of Manon, Akhnaten and La Cenerentola. On the concert stage, she performs four programs celebrating Erich Korngold's legacy with Bard Music Festival and Orchestra NOW, Ravel's 3 poèmes de Stéphane Mallarmé with the Norwalk Symphony and Berlioz's Les nuits d'été with the Missoula Symphony. She appears in recital with Bryan Wagorn in works by Gustav and Alma Mahler with the renowned Aspect Chamber Music Series. Outside of the classical music world, Ringle Kamarei contributes as part of the PERFORMA Biennial art festival in New York with artist Tara Subkoff presented by the Hole Gallery.
