Andrea Carroll

Andrea Carroll is an American soprano who has had an active international career in concerts and operas since 2012. A finalist in the 2015 Operalia, The World Opera Competition, she is particularly known for her performances with the Houston Grand Opera and the Vienna State Opera.

A graduate of Walt Whitman High School and the Manhattan School of Music (MSM), Carroll grew up in Bethesda, Maryland. She performed in several operas while a student at the MSM, including the Wife in Schubert's Die Verschworenen and Despina in Così fan tutte. She also studied voice with Phyllis Curtin and Stephanie Blythe at the Tanglewood Music Center. She then served in the Young Artist Program at the Glimmerglass Opera and for two years as a member of the Young Artist Program at the Houston Grand Opera (HGO) before becoming a resident artist at the Vienna State Opera (VSO). At the VSO she has appeared as Zerlina in Don Giovanni (2015-2016) and the title heroine in Johanna Doderer’s Fatima oder Von den Mutigen Kindern (2015-2016) among other roles.

In 2012 Carroll made debuts with several American companies, including the HGO as Mussetta in La boheme, the Fort Worth Opera as Sussana in The Marriage of Figaro, and her debut at the Wolf Trap Opera as Zerlina. She returned to Wolf Trap in 2013 to perform the role of Corrina in Il viaggio a Reims and returned to the HGO to perform the roles of Adele in Die Fledermaus and The Plaintiff in Gilbert and Sullivan's Trial by Jury. That same year she made her debut at the Utah Opera as Rosalba in Florencia en el Amazonas and was a featured soloist in a program of winter and holiday music with the Houston Symphony.
