About Meredith Hansen
Hailed a “standout” by Ted Medrek of the Boston Herald for her performance of Antonia in Les Contes d\'Hoffmann, Meredith Hansen has scored many successes, both domestically and internationally. For her performance of Rossini’s Petite Messe Solennelle with Masterworks Chorale, the Boston Globe offered the following praise: “Soprano Meredith Hansen sang the surprisingly sweet ‘Crucifixus’ with a creamy tone and soared in the ‘O salutaris hostia.’”Opera magazine (UK) deemed her “a real find”, and Opera News stated, “As Marzelline, the jailer’s daughter in love with Fidelio, soprano Meredith Hansen was a bright, clever presence, and the size and color of her voice matched the role perfectly. She succeeded where very few singers do, making perfect dramatic sense of a romantic comedy figure essentially stranded in this otherwise dark and serious work.”Meredith Hansen’s 2015-16 season currently includes singing as the Trainbearer in Strauss’Elektra in a return engagement with the Boston Symphony Orchestra as well as stepping in last minute as Donna Anna in Don Giovanni with Opera in Williamsburg and appearing as a featured soloist at Asheville Lyric Opera\'s annual Gala. In 2014 she made her Boston Symphony debut (at Tanglewood) as soloist in Beethoven’s Choral Fantasy and in the 2014-15 season sang Donna Anna in Don Giovanni in a re-engagement with Boston Lyric Opera. She returned to the Metropolitan Opera in season 2013-14 for its production of Borodin’s Prince Igor and sang First Lady in BLO\'s The Magic Flute.Originally from Cohasset, MA, Meredith received her undergraduate training at The University of Connecticut, her Master\'s Degree from Boston University, and spent a year of post-graduate study as an Intern with the Opera Institute at Boston University.
