  • Noted for her “dazzling, virtuoso singing” (Boston Globe), soprano Lucy Fitz Gibbon delights in the range of sonic possibility inherent in the human voice. With a repertoire ranging from the Baroqueto the present day, she specializes in the dusty corners of the canon, giving modern premieres of rediscovered works from the Baroque through the mid-20th century, and is sought-out for her collaborations with today’s composers.

     

    Ms. Fitz Gibbon has appeared as soloist with ensembles such as the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, Tafelmusik, and American Symphony Orchestra, and debuts with the Hong Kong Philharmonic this coming May. An avid chamber musician, recent collaborators include the Aizuri and Brentano String Quartets, Merz Trio, violinist Alexi Kenny, and flutist Marina Piccinini, as well as her husband and collaborative partner, pianist Ryan McCullough. In the 24-25 season, she performs new works by Katherine Balch, Tan Dun, Deirdre Gribbin, György Kurtág, Helmut Lachenmann, and Elizabeth Ogonek, among others.

     

    Raised in Davis, and a former violin student of William Barbini, Lucy now lives in the Hudson Valley, where she serves on the faculty of Bard College Conservatory’s Graduate Vocal Arts Program. She is honored to be the recipient of a 2024 Fellowship from the Borletti-Buitoni Trust, whose generous support will enable upcoming commissioning, recording, and performance projects.
