Tracy Cantin
soprano
Praised for her "full, gleaming sound" (Chicago Tribune),
Canadian soprano Tracy Cantin "has it all - agility, power and
dazzling coloratura" (Chicago Sun-Times), not to mention "vocal
and physical allure, with interpretive intelligence and stage
presence to boot" (Chicago Tribune). A recent graduate of the
prestigious Ryan Opera Center at Lyric Opera of Chicago, Ms
Cantin won magnificent critical acclaim last season at Lyric as
Berta/Il barbiere di Siviglia, has appeared with the company in
Elektra, Rigoletto, Parsifal, and most recently in the title role of
Donizetti’s demanding Anna Bolena, in which she replaced
ailing super-star soprano Sondra Radvanovsky. Her operatic
repertoire includes Mimì/La Bohème, Donna Anna/Don Giovanni,
Governess/Turn of the Screw, Amelia/Simon Boccanegra,
Rosalinde/Die Fledermaus, Desdemona/Otello, Eva/Die
Meistersinger von Nürnberg, Rusalka/Rusalka, and Alice
Ford/Falstaff.
An avid concert performer, Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9 introduced her to Australian audiences, singing
alongside Bryn Terfel, under the baton of Sir Andrew Davis, with the Melbourne Symphony
Orchestra. Additionally, Ms Cantin has been heard as the soprano soloist in Bernstein’s Songfest, Handel’s
Messiah, Schubert’s Mass in Ab, Mozart’s Requiem, has shared the stage with internationally renowned
artists including Renée Fleming, Stephanie Blythe, Christine Goerke, Joyce DiDonato, Susan Graham,
Ferruccio Furlanetto, Eric Owens, Johan Botha and Ana Maria Martìnez, and has recently made debuts
with the Ravinia Festival, Grant Park Festival, Oregon Symphony, Illinois Philharmonic, and the Civic
Orchestra of Chicago. Ms Cantin has had the privilege of working with some of today’s most respected
conductors and directors, including numerous engagements with Sir Andrew Davis (Beethoven 9, La
Bohème, Le Nozze di Figaro), as well as Riccardo Muti (La Traviata), Michele Mariotti (Il Barbiere di
Siviglia), Vlad Iftinca (Turn of the Screw), Bertrand de Billy (Otello), Sir David McVicar (Elektra,
Rusalka), John Caird (Parsifal), and Elijah Moshinsky (Simon Boccanegra).
Ms Cantin holds degrees from McGill University, the University of Western Ontario, and the University of
Alberta. Among Ms Cantin’s numerous awards are a 2014 Sullivan Foundation Award, a 2014
Lieutenant Governor of Alberta Emerging Artist Award, first place in Canada’s prestigious Lois Marshall
Memorial Competition (2010), and is a 2016 Semi-Finalist of the Metropolitan Opera National Council.
