Biography
Montreal soprano Kimy McLaren made her professional stage debut with Opéra National du Rhin, she has performed extensively world wide and accrued a formidable and widely diverse repertoire comprised of opera, concert, recital and musical theatre.
Kimy has performed more than thirty operatic roles – Marguerite (Faust), Leïla (Les pêcheurs de perles), Juliette (Roméo et Juliette), Donna Elvira (Don Giovanni), Marie (Wozzeck), Governess (The Turn of the Screw) to name only a few – not only in France (Lille, Strasbourg, Marseille, Toulon, Metz, Bordeaux, Reims et al.) but also in Latin America, Asia and Canada. Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris engaged her for an enormously successful run of Julie in Carousel and immediately invited her to return in the role of Cinderella in Sondheim’s Into the Woods. Additionally, she has appeared as a soloist with an impressive number of symphony orchestras, including Orchestre Symphonique De Montréal, Orchestre Métropolitain, Malaysian Philharmony, Wiener Kammer Orchester and many more throughout Europe and across Canada – having collaborated with such internationally acclaimed conductors as Charles Dutoit, Kent Nagano and Yannick Nézet-Séguin.
Prize winner in the International Mozart Competition in Salzburg and Mario Lanza Competition in Italy, Kimy is charismatic and very much at home on the operatic stage – nevertheless, she also enjoys performing in chamber works and recital. Her vast repertoire reflects a true affinity and genuine passion for all aspects of the vocal art.
Most recently, Kimy appeared in the musical Marry Me a Little (Elle) at the Théâtre Marigny in Paris and the opera Flight (Stewardess) at Pacific Opera Victoria. She also performed as a soloist in Les Grands Ballets Canadiens' Stabat Mater and in the Mass in B minor with l'Orchestre Métropolitan.
