Bio
Irish lyric soprano, Amy most recently made her Swiss, house and role debut as Mimì in Puccini’s La Bohème with Theater Orchester Biel Solothurn. She began her 2025/26 season with another role debut as Mařenka in Smetana’s The Bartered Bride with Irish National Opera, a role which she looks forward to reprising in the 2026/27 season.
Her German debut as La Contessa Almaviva in Mozart’s Le Nozze di Figaro marked the beginning of her ongoing relationship with Theater Magdeburg. Following her debut, she was invited to join their house ensemble working with them for the 2024/25 Season. Highlights included Micaëla (Carmen, Bizet), Liù (Turandot, Puccini), and The Queen in the world premiere of Gerald Barry’s Salomé, an opera which is set to return in 2026 in concert to the National Concert Hall, Ireland as part of the New Music Dublin Festival. She also sang with the Magdeburgische Philharmonie in their annual commemoration concert performing Beethoven’s Symphony No.9 under Anna Skryleva.
Equally at home in both traditional and contemporary repertoire, Amy made her Royal Ballet & Opera debut at the Linbury Theatre in 2023 with Irish National Opera as Rosemary in their production of Least Like the Other, The Search for Rosemary Kennedy, composed by Brian Irvine and directed by Netia Jones. The Arts Desk described her as “totally finessed” and “a young rising star.” The production was subsequently nominated for Best New Opera Production at the 2023 Olivier Awards. Later that year she returned to the Royal Ballet & Opera to cover in Wagner’s Das Rheingold under the baton of Sir Antonio Pappano. This season she looks forward to starting a world tour of The Curing Line, a new opera by Michael Gallen which was awarded the Opera Prize 2025 from the renowned Fedora Platform.
Other operatic roles include Freia (Das Rheingold, Wagner), Marguerite (Faust, Gounod), Elisabetta I (Maria Stuarda, Donizetti), Elettra (Idomeneo, Mozart), Helena (A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Britten) Gretel (Hänsel und Gretel, Humperdinck). Later this season she is delighted to return to the Blackwater Valley Opera Festival to make her role debut as Donna Anna in Mozart’s Don Giovanni with conductor Peter Whelan and the Irish Baroque Orchestra.
A sought-after recitalist, Amy has performed in multiple venues across Ireland, the UK and Germany. She most notably made her French debut in a broadcast for Radio France with French chamber ensemble
Miroirs Étendus conducted by Fiona Monbet.
In 2021 she was selected for the Final Rounds of The Queen Sonja Singing Competition, and was a semi-finalist in the International Hans Gabor Belvedere Singing Competition that same year. Amy is originally from Dublin, Ireland
and is currently based in Amsterdam where she is under the tutelage of Hanneke de Wit.
In Dublin she received her BMus from the Conservatory of Music and Drama.
