Wagner as a Bridge: Singing Beyond Boundaries

Katherine Goforth will showcase her powerful, award-winning tenor voice in concert this spring!

Katherine is the first winner of the True Voice Competition for transgender and non-binary singers. Katherine is undeterred by historical barriers in the performing arts and is finding new ways to show up authentically on stage, in the rehearsal room, and as a creative artist.

FREE for BWS members. Nonmembers may purchase tickets here for $35. Student tickets are $10.

Katherine is the recipient of Washington National Opera’s inaugural True Voice Award for transgender and non-binary singers and the Career Advancement Award from the fourth Dallas Symphony Orchestra Women in Classical Music Symposium.

Katherine was a member of the International Opera Studio of Oper Köln, received her Bachelor’s degree from St. Olaf College, her Master’s degree from the Juilliard School, and attended the Franz-Schubert-Institut, Britten Pears Young Artist Programme, Heidelberger Frühling Liedakademie, Georg Solti Accademia, and Boston Wagner Institute.

Wendy Bryn Harmer is a young dramatic soprano from Northern California, best known for her roles in Der Ring des Nibelungen.

She will sing in a recital at Rabb Hall at the Copley Square (Central) branch of the Boston Public Library. The concert will be free and open to everyone, BWS members and the public. No tickets necessary.

In the 2023-24 season, she sings her first performances of Brünnhilde in Die Walküre with Atlanta Opera. She also returns to the Metropolitan Opera as Kitty Hart in the new production of Dead Man Walking and sings Ravel’s Shéhérazade with the Utah Symphony. Last season, she returned to Utah Opera for further performances of Senta and sang Sieglinde in Die Walküre in concert with Michigan Opera Theater in addition to returning to the Metropolitan Opera roster for its productions of Lohengrin and Der fliegende Höllander.

Sought-after in German repertoire, she has also recently excelled as Chrysothemis in Elektra with the Metropolitan Opera, Leonore in Fidelio with Opera Omaha and Boston Baroque, the title role of Ariadne auf Naxos with Palm Beach Opera, and Eglantine in von Weber’s rarely-performed Euryanthe at the Bard Music Festival. She previously joined Seattle Opera as well as the Metropolitan Opera, San Francisco Opera, Montreal Symphony Orchestra, and the Boston Symphony Orchestra at the Tanglewood Music Festival for operas the Ring Cycle. Her countless performances within the epic work encompass the roles of Sieglinde, Gerhilde, and Orltinde in Die Walküre; Freia in Das Rheingold; and Gutrune and Third Norn in Götterdämmerung.

Join us in celebrating the culmination of the BWI students’ hard work this summer! This will be an all-Wagner concert featuring each student performing memorized, fully-staged Wagner scenes.

Overseen and coached by Jane Eaglen, directed and staged by Danielle Wright, with the orchestral Brett Hodgdon and Robert Mollicone accompanying singers on piano.
