Chicago-based mezzo-soprano Lauren Randolph recently graduated from Northwestern University’s Bienen School of Music under the mentorship of Theresa Brancaccio.
An avid interpreter of Baroque repertoire, she has performed the roles of Cornelia in Giulio Cesare, Amastre in Serse and Disinganno in Il Trionfo del Tempo e del Disinganno by G.F. Handel and has appeared as a concert soloist in Cantata 103 and the Oster-Oratorium of J.S. Bach. Other operatic and concert engagements include Florence Pike in Britten’s Albert Herring, La Zia Principessa in Puccini’s Suor Angelica and the mezzo-soprano soloist in the Duruflé Requiem and the Mozart Requiem.
In March 2023, Randolph was recognized as the third-place winner of the Metropolitan Opera’s Laffont Competition in the Central Region and was the recipient of the Edith Newfield Award from the Musicians Club of Women.
