Mezzo-soprano Jamie Barton has a crowd-pleasing sense of fun that propelled her beyond the common run of young singers in the 2010s. Her breakthrough was at the 2007 Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions with a performance of the Witch's aria from Hansel und Gretel. She made her Metropolitan Opera debut in the 2009-2010 season and had several roles at the Bavarian State and Chicago Lyric Operas. In 2013, she took both the Song Prize and the Singer of the World prize at the BBC Cardiff Singer of the World Competition. On recordings, Barton appeared in ensemble casts from 2010 until her first solo album, All Who Wander, in 2016. In 2019, she appeared on the world premiere recording of Pauline Viardot's opera Le Dernier Sorcier. She returned in 2020 with Unexpected Shadows, a collection of songs by Jake Heggie, with the composer on piano.
