About Irene
American mezzo-soprano Irene Roberts brings her “plush, opulent voice” (San Jose Mercury News) to opera houses and concert stages across the country in the 2013-14 season, beginning with her house debut at New Orleans Opera where Roberts makes her role debut as Janthe in the company’s season-opening new production of Marschner’s Der Vampyr. The mezzo-soprano makes another major role debut this season when she embodies Nicklausse in Les Contes d’Hoffmann for her return to Palm Beach Opera. Roberts reprises her acclaimed portrayal of Rosina in Il barbiere di Siviglia for her house debut at The Atlanta Opera – The Modesto Bee declared that “Irene Roberts is a delight as Rosina” in her most recent performance of the role. On the concert stage this season, Roberts delves into the music of Wagner for a concert at Duke University in December.
