Amy Maples • Soprano

A Resident Artist at Denver School of the Arts, Amy performs with such Colorado companies as Opera Theatre of the Rockies, Opera Colorado, Loveland Opera Theatre, Boulder Opera, and the Colorado Springs Philharmonic. A featured artist with the Knoxville Symphony Orchestra, Alabama Symphony Orchestra, Bangor Symphony Orchestra, Brevard Symphony Orchestra, Colorado Chamber Orchestra, and Orchestra Kentucky, among others, Amy is making her mark as a concert soloist as much as an operatic performer. Favorite roles include Cunegonde in Candide, Susanna in Le Nozze di Figaro, Adina in L’Elisir d’Amore, Gilda in Rigoletto, Linda in Linda di Chamounix, Lakmé in Lakmé, Thérèse in Les Mamelles de Tiresias, and Mabel in The Pirates of Penzance. She received her MM in Voice from Florida State University where she studied with tenor Stanford Olsen, after receiving her BM in Voice at Lee University in her home state of Tennessee.

“Maples’ strong mid-range made her leaps into gorgeous coloratura heights all the more surprising and thrilling.”
