Material Detail

An American concert and opera singer from Palatka, Florida, Johnson began her career performing works from the mezzo-soprano repertoire but after encouragement from the staff at the Metropolitan Opera retrained her voice as a soprano. She successfully made that transition after winning the Young Concert Artists competition in 1993. She went on to perform as a leading soprano with orchestras and opera companies internationally. She earned a Bachelor of Music degree from Bethune-Cookman University and a Master of Music degree from the Manhattan School of Music before winning a study grant from the Richard Tucker Music Foundation in 1990.
