Not only is she providing opportunities to hear thrilling voices and committed interpretations, she’s engaging with the Met collection in illuminating and sometimes challenging ways." – Musical America
"This is a musician who delights in making her own rules." – The New Yorker
Is it possible to provide a voice for stories that have been made silent? That's a question vocalist, intellectual powerhouse, and MetLiveArts Artist in Residence Julia Bullock will ponder as she crafts a season of five thought-provoking and transcendent performances that will bring to light some of the hidden narratives we are living with. Spanning from September through May, this "exceptional singer of the new generation" (The New York Times), hailed as "opulent and glorious" by Opera News, adds her voice—both the rich, resonant soprano that's been garnering raves around the world, and the voice of social consciousness and activism that she considers fundamental to her role as artist—to The Met collection.
