Louanna Colón

Louanna Colón is a soprano vocalist who is passionate about creating ethereal experiences on the stage, inspired by her recollection of the first time she heard Mimi’s first aria from La Boheme in her car, overwhelmed by the emotion and intensity amongst musical lines. To recreate that ethereal moment for her audiences is the deepest motivation behind her musical approach. Louanna Colón seeks to build this musical approach and connection to her audience through opera roles, concert gigs, chamber and solo recitals. She has performed the roles of Erste Dame with Lyric Opera Studio in Weimar, Germany; Destino in La Calisto with the Peabody Opera Department, and Musetta with Chicago Summer Opera. She has received invaluable coaching and perspective from her experience performing in the opera choruses for Don Giovanni, Die Zauberflote, and The Rake’s Progress. She also performed in chamber ensembles for Monteverdi’s Poppea and Vaughan Williams Riders to the Sea. And, she has performed and worked on the roles of Florencia, Susanna, Giuletta, and Sister Rose in opera scene programs. 

Louanna Colón also has a passion for education and teaching that continues to blossom.  She uses her background in voice and instrumental performance in her work as an instructor, having studied the violin and piano for many years. She has worked with various music studios throughout the DMV and currently runs her own private studio. She also currently works for the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra Education Department.

Louanna Colón graduated with a Bachelor of Music degree with a concentration in classical vocal performance from James Madison University summa cum laude. And received her Master of Music in Vocal Performance from the Peabody Conservatory of Johns Hopkins University under the study of Randall Scarlata.
