Edmonton Opera’s 2026/27 Emerging Artist Program will feature soprano Teresa Tucci and tenor Spencer VanDellen.

Throughout the season, they will take part in performances, residencies, and outreach work across Edmonton and the Yukon, including the Dawson City Summer Residency, Edmonton Opera Residency, and Yukon Arts Centre Outreach Tours.

Soprano Teresa Tucci is recognized for her vibrant stage presence, vocal agility, and versatility across the operatic repertoire. A Fellow of The Royal Conservatory of Music’s Glenn Gould School, she has recently performed with Manitoba Opera, Toronto City Opera, and the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity.

Praised by Opera Canada for his “glorious, lyric sound” and “accomplished vocal technique,” tenor Spencer VanDellen has performed leading roles across North America in opera, operetta, concert, and recital repertoire.

We look forward to sharing their work with audiences throughout the season ahead.
