Franca-Latina mezzo-soprano Adrienne LaVey makes her Rabbit Box debut to perform the most passionate French and Italian arias and art songs of the romantic era. With her unique chocolatey and sparkling mezzo-soprano voice, she will make you fall in love with these pieces again and again. As is her signature dramatic flair, Miss LaVey refuses to allow these pieces to be performed with sterility and perfection, but rather with the passion with which they were written. She will also reunite with tenor Timothy Keller for a heartbreaking duet from La Favorite, all accompanied by Christopher Powell on piano. Adrienne LaVey is an operationally-trained vocalist based out of Seattle with a love for French and Italian operatic repertoire. A native Washingtonian, she has made Seattle her home artistically and personally. She produces intimate, immersive, and accessible operatic shows around the Seattle area, inviting her audiences into the world of the pieces that she falls in love with, rather than what mezzo-sopranos are expected to be performing. She loves showcasing pieces that are often off the beaten path that her audiences may not have heard before, and delights when they identify with it. Adrienne has curated a cocktail, the Maiden’s Blush no2, that can be ordered at the event.
