   About Erin Wood, Soprano
BREAKING NEWS: ERIN WOOD MAKES OPERA COLORADO DEBUT AS AMELIA IN VERDI'S UN BALLO IN MASCHERA 4/26/07
 
"this show is a triumph. There's no point in distributing win-place-show honors - so ideally matched are the vocalists. Erin Wood brings intense acting and a soaring soprano to Amelia."-Marc Shulgold, Rocky Mountain News
 
"Erin Wood, who has recently stepped in for Deborah Voigt in San Francisco and Chicago, is a sensitive and feminine Amelia with an immense voice full of grit at the bottom and transcendent radiance at the top."- Wes Blomster, Daily Camera
 
"She possesses a rich, full soprano that is consistently strong from top to bottom of her range."- Kyle MacMillan, Denver Post
 
"...and Erin Wood's bright soprano, as Amelia, Anckarström's wife, round out the exquisite voicing of the love triangle."- Bob Bows, ColoradoDrama.com
 
"...young soprano Erin Wood, who dazzled. The rich-toned and melodious Wood gave emotionally charged and seemingly effortless readings of selections from The Valkyrie. She was equally comfortable later in the program as Isolde when she delivered a transcendent performance of the famous "Liebestod" that ends Tristan and Isolde"- Steven Cornelius, Toledo Blade
 
"Soprano Erin Wood, featured in selections from "Aida" -looked and sounded good enough to perform roles at any top opera house in the country... Wood unleashed a volcanic outpouring of sound that was thrilling to behold. She has dramatic soprano potential written all over her. The voice is steady, alluring and true, and she floated "Numi, pieta" luminously. Wood could be the next Eileen Farrell..." - John von Rhein, Chicago Tribune
 
"The vocal standout was soprano Erin Wood, whose voice has an uncanny resemblance to the great American singer Eleanor Steber." -Rick Walters, The Milwaukee Shepherd-Express
 

It is easy to see why soprano Erin Wood is in demand with major American opera houses. A graduate of Lyric Opera of Chicago's Center for American Artists and recent winner of the George London Foundations Kirsten Flagstad Award, Wood has been asked to step in for an indisposed Deborah Voigt both as Sieglinde in Wagner's Die Walkuere with Lyric Opera and as Amelia in Un Ballo in Maschera with San Francisco Opera to fantastic successes. With Lyric, Ms. Wood has also been seen as Lisa in The Queen of Spades, Berta in Il Barbiere di Siviglia, First Nursemaid in Street Scene, Mrs. Gleaton in Susannah, Ortlinde in Die Walkuere, Gutrune and the Third Norn in Goetterdaemmerung, Lady-in waiting in Macbeth and was a featured artist in the company's first-ever free concert at Grant Park.

 

She has been featured with the Joffrey Ballet of Chicago, Opera Colorado, Opera Grand Rapids, Toledo Opera, Opera Pacific, Music Academy of the West, the Angeles Chorale, the Grant Park and Ravinia Music Festivals, as well as the Milwaukee, Pacific and Lake Forest Symphonies. She joined the roster of the San Francisco Opera in 2003 and the Metropolitan Opera in 2004. Ms. Wood has been seen in recital in Chicago for the Dame Myra Hess Foundation and in New York with the Marilyn Horne Foundation. Recent engagements include Un Ballo in Maschera for Opera Colorado, La Forza del Destino and Un Ballo in Maschera for San Francisco Opera, Der Rosenkavalier for Lyric Opera of Chicago, and her first "Liebestod" with Toledo Opera. Next season marks her return to Opera Pacific in both The Magic Flute and Susannah. Erin and her husband Keith Schaefer keep busy with toddler Elliott, and live in Southern California.

Far Away Friend
by: Susan Polis Schutz, Wendy's Page


Even though we live
far from each other
I always talk to you
in my thoughts
and see you
in my dreams
It doesn't matter
that we are not together
because our friendship
is such a strong part
of my life
And as long as I know that
you are happy where you are
I, too, am happy.

*************************************

Hello Erin,

It's so nice to hear from you.
I hope things are going wonderful for you.
Have a pleasant week!

Sending "Love and Hugs" your way,
Mary~Louise

I am an interpreter of old towns
Towns, which never have been built
Oh if I could write poems without any words
What a beautiful poems it would be

I am a butterfly
Without any wings
Until I die
Then I can fly everywhere

This is for you, my best friend,
the one person i can tell my soul too
Who can relate to me like no other
Who I can laugh with to no extents,
Who I can cry too when times are tough,
Who can help me with the problems of my life.
