Nationality: American

Susan Graham was born in New Mexico in 1960 and studied at the Manhattan School of Music, winning the Metropolitan Opera’s National Council Auditions and making her international debut in the title-role of Massenet’s Chérubin at Covent Garden in 1994. It was an auspicious beginning: throughout her career she has been particularly associated with trouser-roles and French repertoire, including Mozart’s Sesto in La clemenza di Tito, Ruggiero in Handel’s Alcina (which she recorded opposite Renée Fleming and Natalie Dessay for Erato), Strauss’s Komponist in Ariadne auf Naxos and Octavian in Der Rosenkavalier, Charlotte in Massenet’s Werther and the heroine of Berlioz’s Béatrice et Bénédict. (Graham’s discography covers many of Berlioz’s major works for voice, including L’Enfance du Christ under Charles Dutoit, La damnation de Faust under Kent Nagano, Les nuits d’éte under John Nelson, and Didon in Les troyens from the Théâtre du Châtelet under John Eliot Gardiner).

Graham is a committed advocate for new American music, and created the central role of Sister Helen Prejean in Jake Heggie’s opera Dead Man Walking in 2000, as well as Jordan Baker in John Harbison’s The Great Gatsby.
