American Soprano Regina Zona in Concert

Regina Zona is an acclaimed American opera singer, visiting South Africa for the first time to perform in Cape Town

Regina Zona has had the pleasure of working with some of the world’s best conductors, including French conductor Emmanuel Villaume, Welsh conductor Grant Llewellyn and American conductors James Meena and Carol Crawford. Under the baton of Maestra Eve Queler she has performed some of the great bel canto roles.

She performed the music of Richard Strauss at a Gala Concert with the Tokyo Symphony, under the baton of Austrian conductor Gustav Kuhn.  She also sang Donna Anna in Don Giovanni with the Hawaii Opera Theatre.

Dr. Zona triumphed in her second consecutive season with the Sarasota Opera as the flirtatious Musetta in La Bohéme, where she “stole the show…with her brilliant soprano and outrageously seductive characterization”. Perhaps her most critically acclaimed role at the beginning of her career was Queen of the Night in Die Zauberflöte.
