Gabriela Fagen

Berlin based mezzo-soprano Gabriela Fagen is a multi-faceted vocal artist well versed in baroque, classical and bel canto styles. Summer of 2024 marked her return to the Winter Harbor Music Festival, performing the roles of Dorabella in Così fan tutte and Norina in Don Pasquale, after appearing in last year’s production of Le nozze di Figaro as Cherubino. Ms. Fagen was contracted as a studio artist with Teatro Nuovo for two seasons, covering Rosina in Il barbiere di Siviglia in 2021, and was slated to cover Alceo in Il vero omaggio, which was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Last season, Ms. Fagen performed in the chorus of Cambridge Chamber Ensemble’s staged production of Handel’s Samson, and as the alto soloist in Mendelssohn’s Magnificat and in Haydn’s Mass in c minor with the Marblehead Festival Chorus. Additional recent roles include Sesto in Giulio Cesare, Dryade in Ariadne auf Naxos, and Unulfo in Rodelinda with Indiana University Opera Theatre, Orlofsky in Die Fledermaus with Lyric Opera Studio Weimar, and Dritte Dame in Die Zauberflöte with the Prague Summer Nights Festival. Ms. Fagen holds both a Master and Bachelor of Music from the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music.
