"I am ecstatic to prepare and perform the iconic role of Blonde. I look forward to bringing her wit, resilience, and dazzling coloratura to life in this vibrant and timeless opera." - Linnea Miner Mott
I am thrilled to be performing the role of Blonde in Mozart’s Die Entführung aus dem Serail (The Abduction from the Seraglio) with Utah State University this spring, in collaboration with the USU Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Maestro Mariusz Smolij, and directed by Dallas Aksoy. Performances will take place April 3, 6, 9, and 11 at the Utah Theatre in Logan, Utah. Ticket information will be available soon.
One of Mozart’s most brilliant and demanding soprano roles, Blonde is fiery, clever, and unapologetically strong—requiring both vocal agility and fearless dramatic presence. I am ecstatic to prepare and perform such an iconic role, and I look forward to bringing her wit, resilience, and dazzling coloratura to life in this vibrant and timeless opera.
