With her warm, vibrant voice and her lively musical intelligence, soprano Rebecca Plack has charmed audiences across the United States, Canada and Europe. She has given solo recitals at the International Great Romatics Festival in Hamilton, Canada and the ATERForum Festival in Ferrara, Italy, and has been featured with Sacramento Opera and Ithaca Opera. Her numerous awards include fellowships at the Aspen Music Festival and the British Library, and she was a winner of the 2004 Los Angeles International Liszt Competition. She holds degrees in music from Cornell and Princeton universities (PhD, MA, AB) and in voice from Manhattan School of Music and the San Francisco Conservatory (MM, Post Graduate Diploma). Her passions for music, performance and the art of singing coalesce in her teaching: she has taught at Cornell and this year will present two guest lectures at Stanford University; she also maintains a private voice studio in Davis, CA.

Rebecca Plack brought solid technique and a gift
for gracefully-executed embellishments to the demanding
title role [of Semele]… Her triplets alone should be the
envy of many professional Queens-of-the-Night.
