Carol Neblett (1946-2017) A Celebration of Life
04.01.18
On Sunday, April 8 Celebrate the life of one of opera’s brightest lights, soprano Carol Neblett, at Musco Center for the Arts at Chapman University. The FREE event includes performances by colleagues and students, remembrances, and videos from her impressive career.
The tall, striking soprano made her Carnegie Hall debut at 19 and landed her first major opera role as Musetta in La Bohème with the New York City Opera in 1969. In 1976, she sang the title role in Tosca alongside Pavarotti at the Lyric Opera of Chicago. It was a role she would perform more than 300 times.
“There never was a moment when she was not in vocal or dramatic command,” wrote New York Times critic Harold Schonberg, a Pulitzer Prize winner. Martin Bernheimer of the Los Angeles Times, another Pulitzer winner, wrote that Neblett’s vocal abilities placed her “in rarefied company among the world’s greatest sopranos.”

Musco Center for the Arts is located on the campus of Chapman University at 415 North Glassell in Orange.
