Hailed as an “earnest and grounded” artist (San Francisco Classical Voice) with a “heart-touching and plush sound” (Bay Area Reporter), Hungarian mezzo-soprano Ágnes Vojtkó is excited to share this recital with A-Squared Productions and Eugene’s musical community. Ágnes made her Carnegie Hall debut in Händel’s Messiah, and her Eugene Opera debut as Flora in Traviata last season. Recent appearances include Bach’s St John Passion Mass in B Minor with American Bach Soloists, Mozart’s Requiem with Connecticut Early Music Festival, Bach’s Mass in B Minor with Music Worcester and Concora. Introduced to music through piano and the Kodály Method at an early age in her hometown of Siófok, Hungary, Ágnes went on to earn her BM at Franz Liszt Academy of Music in Budapest. As a recipient of a Fulbright Scholarship, she moved to the US and now holds an MM and DMA in Voice from the University of Texas at Austin. Ágnes served on the voice faculty of Collin College and Southwestern University, TX.
