Direct from the opera and musical theater world, Aimee Petra brings you the re-release of her 2006 EP, “Diva or Darling!” Her brilliant four octave range and engaging presence will put a smile on your face, spring in your step, and song in your heart! Join Aimee as she takes you on a tour of her favorite American Songbook Classics and Operetta. Often compared with Kristin Chenoweth, Aimee is a unique blend of musical styles. The richness and color of her voice lead her in many directions as evidenced by her extensive career in opera, classical, musical theater, sacred/gospel and now jazz genres.
An exceptional talent, Aimee Petra boasts a 4-octave range of dynamic color and presence. Rooted in musical theatre and later classically trained, Aimee has performed and recorded music of varying styles. After many years singing opera, classical and musical theatre throughout the United States, she decided to switch gears in 2008 and explore the world of jazz. Her debut jazz album, “Too Much Fun”, was released late summer 2008 to national & international acclaim. In 2010, Aimee released 3 new jazz singles. Two of the songs, “Beatitude in Blue” and “Duet of Solos” were featured on the All About Jazz website daily download days after they were released. She currently is collaborating with several new songwriters and has started writing her own music. Aimee enjoys performing throughout the upper Midwest in a variety of venues, from intimate wine bars to music festivals to concert halls, private parties and corporate events. Her sparkling vocals and warm stage presence delight audiences of all ages!
Classically, she has sung operatic roles with Bay View Music Festival (Michigan), Opera in the Ozarks (Arkansas), Dorian Opera (Iowa), Opera Kansas, Gilbert & Sullivan Very Light Opera Company (Minnesota) and others. Aimée is the 2003 winner of the Marcella Kochanska Sembrich Vocal Competition and worked with Joan Dornemann at Portland Opera''s IVAI program in 2000. Highlights of her musical theatre career include principal roles of Widow Douglas/Lead Soprano in “Big River” with Lake City Theatre Company, Mary Wilson in “Sgt. Pepper''s: The Drunkard” and Ingenue in “On Broadway” for Lake Pepin Players. She has also performed leading roles with Phipps Center for the Arts and the Minnesota Fringe Festival.
Her passion for concert work has led to an active recital career performing programs such as “An Evening of Italian Song” and “Classically Minnesota”, and soloing with orchestral/choral groups singing Bach''s “Magnificat” and Orff''s “Carmina Burana”. In addition, she has frequently sung the National Anthem at opening ceremonies for national conventions around the country. Aimée has enjoyed performing and recording the music of several living composers including Libby Larsen, Stephen Paulus, and David Evan Thomas. She has also sung sacred music throughout her career and is a soloist throughout the Twin Cities area for weddings, funerals, holidays and Sunday Worship.
