Kitty Whately

Mezzo-soprano Kitty Whately has been highly visible in Britain since being designated a BBC New Generation Artist from 2013 to 2015. Unusually versatile, she has performed opera, choral music, and lieder, and her repertory ranges from Gilbert and Sullivan to contemporary works. Whately's designation as a BBC New Generation Artist in 2013 led to the chance to record her debut album, the song recital This Other Eden. In 2019, she joined baritone Roderick Williams on The Song of Love, a collection of little-known material by Ralph Vaughan Williams. In 2023, Whately issued the solo recital Befreit: A Soul Surrendered. She is the co-founder of the charity SWAP'ra (Supporting Women and Parents in Opera).
