Caramoor: J’Nai Bridges
Mezzo-soprano J’Nai Bridges, known for her “plush-voice” (The New York Times) and “commanding stage presence” (The New Yorker), has been heralded as a rising star, gracing the world’s top opera and concert stages. Recently seen at the Metropolitan Opera as Nefertiti in Philip Glass’s Akhnaten, her Caramoor debut program lifts up new voices and celebrates the beauty of song.
