Mezzo-soprano Christina English recently made her Carnegie Hall debut in Weill Recital Hall with pianist Katie Reimer, performing Malcolm Peyton's Songs from Walt Whitman. Following this collaboration, she became a member of Mimesis Ensemble, a New York City based group dedicated to performing works of living composers. Equally comfortable on the operatic stage, her 2010 engagements include Dorabella in Cosi fan tutte with Riverside Theatreworks, and Second Lady in The Magic Flute with MetroWest Opera.

A devoted performer of art song, Ms English was awarded Second Prize in Voice in the 2009 Grieg Festival Young Artists Competition in Florida, performing selections from Grieg's Haugtussa. She is a sought after interpreter of contemporary works, and was invited by composer John Heiss to perform his Songs from James Joyce in New England Conservatory's Jordan Hall, as well as by Mohammed Fairouz to sing his Three Shakespeare Songs at the Kaufmann Center. Recital repertoire includes Montsalvatge's Cinco Canciones Negras, Schumann's Frauenliebe und Leben, Stravinsky's Three Songs from William Shakespeare, and Satie's Trois Melodies de 1916. Her operatic training and performance includes the Seagle Music Colony, OperaWorks, Operafestival di Roma, MetroWest Opera, Longwood Opera, and the Crittenden Opera Studio.
