Margaret Lattimore, mezzo-soprano.

b i o g r a p h y...........back to roster....up August 2011 Grammy nominated Mezzo-Soprano Margaret Lattimore has sung with the Metropolitan Opera, Florida Grand Opera, Central City Opera, San Diego Opera, Austin Lyric Opera, and Netherlands Opera amongst others. After winning the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions at age 24, Miss Lattimore became a member of the Lindemann Metropolitan Opera Young Artist Development Program. In October of that same year, she made her Metropolitan Opera debut as Dorotea in Stiffelio with Placido Domingo. Other Metropolitan Opera roles have included Meg Page in Falstaff and Jordan Baker in The Great Gatsby, both under the baton of the James Levine. The florid music of Rossini has always been present in Ms. Lattimore’s career and she has sung the roles of Rosina in Il Barbiere di Siviglia and the title role in La Cenerentola in nearly 25 companies across North America. Richard Dyer of The Boston Globe wrote, "The undisputed star of the occasion was mezzo-soprano Margaret Lattimore, who has it all - looks, intelligence, musicianship, personality, technique, and a voice of bewitching amber color. She sang the rondo finale from Rossini’s La Cenerentola with high spirits and dazzling virtuoso aplomb." Other roles include Octavian in Der Rosenkavalier, Der Componist in Ariadne auf Naxos, and Sister Helen Prejean in Dead Man Walking. Ms Lattimore’s Mozart repertoire includes Cherubino in Le Nozze di Figaro, Dorabella in Cosi fan Tutte, Zerlina in Don Giovanni and Tamiri in a production of Il Re Pastore with The Mostly Mozart Festival in New York. Ms. Lattimore’s New York recital debut under the auspices of the Marilyn Horne Foundation led to her engagement by Carnegie Hall and a Weill Recital Hall recital. In the spring of 2003, Ms. Lattimore appeared with The Fleet Celebrity Series in recital at Boston’s Jordan Hall and was the mezzo soloist in the world premiere of John Harbison’s Requiem with the Boston Symphony Orchestra at Symphony Hall and Carnegie Hall. Other recital engagements include appearances at Chicago’s Ravinia Festival, the Covent Garden Festival in London, New York’s Morgan Library, and the 92nd Street Y. Ms. Lattimore has appeared with the New World Symphony, Indianapolis Symphony, New York Philharmonic, Boston Symphony Orchestra, The Orchestra of St. Luke’s, Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, Minnesota Orchestra New World Symphony, and the Hong Kong Philharmonic and has performed with such conductors as James Levine, Bernard Haitink, Kurt Masur, James Conlon, Andrew Davis, Michael Tilson Thomas, Raymond Leppard and Nicholas McGeagan to name few. Future engagements offer a Verdi Requiem at the Winter Park Festival, Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony in a return to the National Symphony of Mexico, Mozart’s Requiem with the Louisiana Philharmonic and the role of Presendia in Dark Sisters with the Opera Compnay of Philhadelphia. 2010/11 highlights included Messiah with the Philadelphia Orchestra, L. Siegel’s Kaddish “I Am Here” and Verdi’s Requiem with the Houston Symphony, Rossini's Stabat Mater with the San Antonio Symphony, Haydn's Paukenmesse with the Sinfonica Nacional de Mexico and the role of Lia in Albéric Magnard’s Bérénice with the American Symphony Orchestra at Carnegie Hall. The 2009/10 season brought a Beethoven Ninth with the Houston Symphony and Messiah with Alabama Symphony. After her success as Old Lady in Candide, she returned to Toledo Opera as Dame Quickly in Falstaff and in the production of Lucretia by Benjamin Britten. In recent seasons, Ms Lattimore has performed Messiah with the New York Philharmonic and the Pittsburgh Symphony, Juno in Semele with Opera Boston and Boston Baroque, Tamiri in Mozart’s Il Re Pastore with Philharmonia Baroque and Nicholas McGegan conducting and debut performances of Mahler’s Second Symphony with the Colorado Music Festival and Elijah with the Honolulu Symphony. She also portrayed Erika in Samuel Barber’s Vanessa for the San Diego Opera and Angelina in Rossini’s La Cenerentola for the Dallas Opera, Calgary Opera, Arizona Opera and Opera Birmingham and made appearances with the Boulder Bach Festival, The San Diego Symphony and The Cathedral Choral Society in Washington D.C. Performances of Ottone in Handel’s Agrippina with Boston Baroque, and Messiah with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra and Colorado Symphony Orchestra followed, as did her first performances of Rossini’s Stabat Mater with the London Symphony Chorus, Verdi’s Requiem with the New Haven Symphony, Mahler’s Lieder eines Fahrenden Gesellen with Mahlerfest in Boulder, Colorado, and debuts with the Louisiana Philharmonic and Huntsville Symphony. Ms. Lattimore attended the Crane School of Music at the State University of New York at Potsdam where she studied with Patricia Misslin. In addition to the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions, Miss Lattimore has won the Eleanor McCollum Award from the Houston Grand Opera Studio, a Jacobson Study Grant from the Richard Tucker Foundation, the prestigious George London Award and most recently became a 2006 Grammy Nominee for the Koch International recording of John Harbison’s Motetti di Montale.
