Addie Rose Forstman

    Appearing this season with dell'Arte as Mélisande in Pelléas et Mélisande (abridged).

    Originally drawn to singing through traditional Scottish and American songs, soprano AddieRose Forstman brings the simplicity and authenticity of folk music to the operatic and art song repertoire. Coming up in 2022 AddieRose will be making her role debut as Mélisande (Pelléas et Mélisande) with dell’Arte Opera), and in November will make her Mexican debut as Zerlina (Don Giovanni, Vincerò Academy).   Recently AddieRose took First Prize and Audience Favorite Award in the Sinfonietta Bel Canto Voice Competition, and performed in concert with the Sinfonietta, led by Maestro Dan Pasquale D’Andrea. AddieRose began the 2022 season by making her Carnegie Hall debut in a gala concert presented by Vincerò Academy, then was seen in the chorus of Hansel and Gretel (Evanston Chamber Opera), and in concert with pianist & composer Maria Thompson Corley.

    A profound desire to create purposeful and productive avenues of poetic communication with audiences has led AddieRose and her frequent collaborator, pianist Edward Forstman, to curate and produce numerous programs of art song over the past several years, through organizations such as dell’Arte Opera (NYC) Downtown Music at Grace (Westchester, NY), A Little Lunch Music (Jule Collins Smith Museum of Fine Art, Auburn, AL) and Music in the Home (Lancaster, PA).  Additionally AddieRose has performed on the operatic and concert stage with dell’Arte OperaThe Broad Street OrchestraThe Bard College Conservatory Orchestra, and The Albany Symphony.
