About the Artists
Sarah Neal is a mezzo-soprano from South Bend, Indiana with a passion for the necessity of accessible, interdisciplinary performing arts. Sarah is thrilled to be a Young Artist with Opera Memphis this season, performing Mercédès in Bizet’s Carmen, the Soloist in Gregg Kallor’s The Tell-Tale Heart, and Endimione in La Calisto. Since receiving their Masters of Music from the University of Houston, Sarah has performed with a wide range of companies, including Central City Opera, Ars Lyrica Houston, and Mercury Chamber Orchestra. Outside of the opera house, Sarah can be found working in their garden, knitting and sewing for hours on end, and reading on their porch.
Marquita Richardson is a soprano with roots in Nashville and the Greater Philadelphia area. Raised in a musical family, Marquita learned to sing from her soul and appreciate a wide variety of musical styles at home, but she started studying voice officially after attending college (Oakwood University, B.S. in Biology). She fell in love with the unique world of opera under the tutelage of Dr. Lloyd Mallory at Delaware State University and continued her vocal performance studies with Dr. Everett McCorvey at the University of Kentucky in 2018. Marquita maintains her love of performing a variety of music—opera, art song, musical theater, pop, jazz, and spirituals—and enjoys every opportunity to connect with and inspire others through music. Marquita believes in creating a more empathetic world through art and great storytelling.
