Elizabeth Caballero, ‘95, is a “diva in the making,” according to the San Francisco Chronicle. Widely praised for her fearless portrayals of the lyric soprano repertoire, she has earned numerous awards, including the Richard Gold Debut Artist Award and the Diva Award from New York City Opera, presented annually to an outstanding female artist who has reached an important stage in her professional career. She was recently praised by Steven Smith of The New York Times for providing “the evening’s most showstopping performance ... offering a thrilling balance of pearly tone, exacting technique and brazen physicality.” A native of Havana, Cuba, she now resides in Miami and studies with tenor Manny Pérez.
