Meet the Artists 

Danielle Talamantes 

A prolific and versatile artist, audiences can find Danielle in performances on the operatic stage, concert hall, and recital salon. With repertoire ranging from fiery fioritura to lush warmth and soaring crystalline heights, audiences are enchanted with her charismatic interpretations. 

Recent seasons performances include Frasquita in Bizet’s Carmen and Anna in Verdi’s Nabucco with The Metropolitan Opera, Beatrice in Catán’s Il Postino with VA Opera, Marzelline in Beethoven’s Fidelio with Princeton Festival; Violetta in La Traviata with Hawaii Opera Theater, Cedar Rapids Opera Theatre, and Finger Lakes Opera, Mimì in La Bohème with St Petersburg (FL) Opera and Jacksonville Symphony; the title role of Susannah with Opera Roanoke; Donna Anna in Don Giovanni with Cedar Rapids Opera Theater; and a Spoleto Festival USA début as Sergente in Cavalli’s Veremonda. 

Kerry Wilkerson 

A resonant singer with unique evenness in the register, bass-baritone Kerry Wilkerson has been described by the Washington Post as an ‘exuberant’ performer having the “amber tone of a lyric baritone with the imposing weight demanded by Handel’s low-lying writing.” He made his Carnegie Hall debut in June 2017 to rave reviews as a baritone soloist in Vaughan Williams’ Sancta Civitas.
