About
Hailed by The Wall Street Journal as “the assertive Mezzo” and praised for her “vocal prowess and acting acumen” (Cleveland Classical), mezzo-soprano Carlyle Quinn is a versatile performer across opera, oratorio, music theater, and song. A Professional Studies Certificate student at the Curtis Institute of Music, her 2025/26 season includes appearances in Monteverdi’s Orfeo, Saariaho’s La Passion de Simone, and Britten’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, as well as her Marian Anderson Hall debut in Mahler’s Des Knaben Wunderhorn with Yannick Nézet-Séguin.

Mission
I strive to be a storyteller, one who seeks to infuse age-old themes with personal experience and unique tone to engage diverse audiences yearning to be uplifted by a new wave of neoclassicism in the dramatic and vocal arts.
