Adriane S. Kerr delights in both teaching and performing and is thankful for the opportunity to learn and grow through both activities. Ms. Kerr received degrees in Vocal Performance from Virginia Commonwealth University, as well as the New England Conservatory, and has sung in a variety of venues, from opera houses to elementary school auditoriums. She has sung with Virginia Opera, Berkshire Opera, Wildwood Opera, Glimmerglass Opera, and the Tidewater Opera Initiative. Some of her favorite roles she’s sung include Marcellina in The Marriage of Figaro, La Zia Principessa in Suor Angelica, Bianca in The Rape of Lucretia, The Witch in Hansel and Gretel, Madame Flora in The Medium, and Hippolyta in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. She embarked upon one of her most fulfilling musical adventures in 2012, when she began teaching at the Governor’s School for the Arts, in Norfolk, VA, where she is an instructor of voice, theory, diction, and acting. She also joined the voice faculty at Old Dominion University in the fall of 2021 as an adjunct instructor.
