Praised for her "bell-like clarity and fine control" and "radient full-bodied voice" by The Washington Post, American soprano Meghan McCall is establishing herself as one of the finest young artists of opera today. She has been hailed for posessing a "beautifully and flawlessly operatic voice" The West Highland Press. In her recent interpretation of Susanna in Le Nozze di Figaro "Meghan McCall made a superlative Susanna on the opening night and was consistently the most outstanding voice in all combinations" All Arts Review, and was "a blooming, vivacious and confident Susanna" The Washington Times.

The young soprano's career has already taken her to stages both in the United States and Europe. Ms. McCall has performed the roles of Fatime in Carl Maria von Weber's Abu Hassan, Fiordiligi in Cosi Fan Tutte, Madame Altina in La Divina (Pasatieri), Lauretta in Gianni Schicchi, Musetta in La Bohème, Adina in L'Elisir d'Amore, Gilda in Rigoletto, Gretel in Hansel and Gretel, Marie in La Fille du Régiment, Giulietta in I Capuleti e i Montecchi, Donna Anna in Don Giovanni, Susanna in Le Nozze di Figaro, Princess (#1) in Transformations Lucia in Lucia di Lammermoor and Miss Jessel in The Turn of the Screw.

Miss McCall will begin this year's season as Gretel in Humperdink's HANSEL AND GRETEL (December 2007/January 2008) and Blondchen in Mozart's DIE ENFÜHRUNG AUS DEM SERAIL (February 2008) with Bel Cantanti Opera.
