Lisette Oropesa is one of the most popular and richest Opera Singer who was born on September 29, 1983 in New Orleans, Louisiana, United States. Lisette Oropesa, born September 29, 1983, is an American operatic singer. Her extensive repertoire includes works by Gluck, Mozart, Rossini and Donizetti as well as Verdi. She has performed roles in English and Spanish, as well German, French, and Italian with her beautiful lyric coloratura soprano voice. Her roles include Gilda Gilda, Konstanze Lucia, Manon, Gilda, Gilda and Gilda.
Oropesa and Steven Harris, her high school boyfriend, reconnected via Facebook in 2008. They were married in Arizona in October 2012.
In April and May 2012, Oropesa appeared with the Pittsburgh Opera as Konstanze in a production of Die Entführung aus dem Serail set on the Orient Express in the Pasha’s private train car. In October 2012, she again performed the role of Lucia with the Arizona Opera to success. In November, she continued her success by performing the role of Cleopatra in Michigan Opera Theatre’s Giulio Cesare to acclaim.
The end of the 2012-13 season culminated with her singing as Gilda in Rigoletto and as the Waldvogel in Siegfried where she was well received in both productions: “Her pure, smooth soprano and alert presence were both endearing” “…including the bright yellow Forest Bird, beautifully sung from offstage by Lisette Oropesa.”
She was substituted and sang her first major role at the Metropolitan Opera. She was Susanna in Sir Jonathan Miller’s production of The Marriage of Figaro, opposite Erwin Schrott’s Figaro, in October 2007. It was a huge success.
