Bevin Hill, soprano

Prepare to be enchanted by soprano Bevin Hill, whose performances blend radiant vocal finesse with irresistible charm and wit. This Georgia native has graced stages nationwide with acclaimed portrayals ranging from the comedic brilliance of Adina in L’elisir d’amore to the emotionally charged Lucia in Lucia di Lammermoor. Praised as a “rubber-kneed goddess of slapstick” while equally celebrated for her emotional depth and technical precision in dramatic repertoire, Ms. Hill recently starred in the world premiere of Feather on the Wind, a work composed specifically for her voice by Thomas Ludwig. A Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions District Winner trained at Manhattan School of Music under Catherine Malfitano, she has performed with Arizona Opera, Des Moines Metro Opera, and Opera Saratoga, among others.

The Roswell Music Club, Roswell Arts Fund, and Friends of Mimosa Hall and Gardens invite you to celebrate the joy of the season with an intimate holiday concert at the magnificent home of Michael Cavanaugh and Michael Zeno. Soprano Tiffany Uzoije, whose glowing voice and gracious presence bring warmth and clarity to every performance, joins cellist Denielle Wilson, known for her elegant sound and soulful musicianship, and pianist David Troy Francis, celebrated for his extraordinary sensitivity and impeccable technique. Together, these three exceptional artists will share a luminous program of timeless carols, classical treasures, and festive favorites that capture the very heart of the holidays. Let the music of the season fill your heart with joy in this special setting filled with the spirit of comfort and cheer.

American mezzo-soprano Gabrielle Beteag (pronounced Bee-tag) brings radiant joy and commanding warmth to repertoire spanning Baroque to contemporary works. Praised by San Francisco Classical Voice for her “precise, soaring voice,” she has recently appeared in acclaimed performances with San Francisco Opera, including The Handmaid’s Tale, The (R)evolution of Steve Jobs, and Carmen.

This summer, Beteag returns to Wolf Trap Opera to perform Mahler’s Resurrection Symphony under Marin Alsop and sing Mère Marie in Dialogues des Carmélites, before traveling to Paris as a finalist in the Paris Opera Competition. A 2020 winner of the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions, she has also performed with the National Symphony Orchestra, Santa Rosa Symphony, and San Francisco Ballet, and looks ahead to her LA Philharmonic debut next season.

Offstage, Beteag is the creator of Songbook Sundays, a social media series of Golden Era jazz standards—often accompanied by her trusty ukulele and hound dog, Hambone.
