ABOUT

 London-born Soprano, Elinor Popham, is a highly versatile singer with a natural sensitivity and musicality which flows through her work, both in opera and in concert. 

Having read English Literature at Warwick University, Elinor was awarded an MA Distinction from the Royal Academy of Music last year. She is now based in London, taking on new roles and recital projects.

 

Combining her love of Literature and Singing, she is also in the process of writing a selection of libretti for operatic and song projects, in the hope of bringing new audiences to opera and creating strong and nuanced writing, particularly for female characters.

 

An advocate for inclusivity in opera, Elinor also regularly works for the Learning & Participation department at the Royal Opera House ...
