Nicole Guberman is a versatile young artist, “that we very much want to hear more of” (Voce di Meche). Recognized for her “gorgeous lyric soprano,” “spinning top register,” and “fluid musicality,” Nicole recently debuted as Frasquita in Andrea DelGiudice's award-winning, readaptation of Bizet's CARMEN at the Teatro Comunale Giuseppe Manini in Narni, Italy, under the baton of Maestro Giovanni Pacor. In New York Nicole has appeared with the New York City Opera Chorus, as Anna in a staged duet scena from Donizetti’s ANNA BOLENA and as Soprano Swing (Fox, Mrs. Paskova, Hen) in Janacek’s PŘÍHODY LIŠKY BYSTROUŠKY with dell’Arte Opera Ensemble at LaMama Experimental Theater, Kate Pinkerton in Puccini’s MADAMA BUTTERFLY with New York Opera Collaborative, Vespetta in Telemann’s PIMPINONE with Apollo Opera, in concert as Cleopatra in Handel’s GIULIO CESARE with operamission, Zelmire in Gluck's DER BETROGENE KADI with NY Lyric Opera, and with NYC’s Opera on Tap. Her diversity of repertoire and musical intelligence has extended to both baroque and contemporary styles: as the title role in Blow’s VENUS AND ADONIS with Cornish Opera Theater, Night in Purcell’s THE FAIRY QUEEN and Hebé in Rameau’s LES INDES GALANTES with Amherst Early Music Festival Opera, and in concert with New York Continuo Collective. She premiered new music in Seattle and New Jersey and champions new works by living composers.
Nicole holds a Bachelor of Music degree in Vocal Performance, magna cum laude from the Ithaca College School of Music where she was the recipient of the Robert Boothroyd and Alice F. Berman Scholarships for music performance as well as awards from the National Association of Teachers of Singing. She heavily pursued her interest in baroque opera and chamber music, earning an Artist Diploma in Early Music from Cornish College in Seattle, before expanding into the Italian and French Bel Canto operatic repertory. With Ithaca College Opera she performed La Fée (Fairy Godmother) in Pauline Viardot-Garcia’s CENDRILLON. Nicole received further training through Ann Baltz’s ground-breaking OperaWorks program and in the Sanford Meisner technique with the Actor’s Workshop of Ithaca.
She resides in Manhattan and studies with international dramatic soprano and director, Andrea DelGiudice.
