MELISSA ATTEBURY, MEZZO-SOPRANO
Praised by the New York Times as a “rich-toned alto who brought a measure of depth to her performance,” Melissa Attebury appears regularly in oratorio concerts where her skill in music of the Baroque is in particular demand. Recent appearances include Messiah, Christmas Oratorio, the St. Matthew and St. John Passions, and Elijah. Venues where she has recently appeared include Carnegie Hall with conductor Alan Gilbert and the New York Philharmonic, The Washington Chorus and The Choir of Trinity Wall Street. Ms. Attebury is featured on the Grammy-nominated Israel in Egypt with the Choir of Trinity Wall Street and as a skilled ensemble musician, appears on Julia Wolfe’s 2015 Pulitzer Prize-winning work Anthracite Fields, recorded with Bang on a Can All-Stars. Melissa is the Associate Director of Music at Trinity Wall Street, is on the faculty of the Berkshire Choral Festival, and manages Trinity’s music outreach program in the public schools.
