No matter how famous they become overseas, our opera singers are often keen to come home to perform. Munich- based Eliza Boom is no exception. Eliza's in the lineup of in-demand young operatic talent in the upcoming Auckland Opera Studio Annual Gala.
She'll be singing arias by Verdi, Puccini, Korngold, Mozart, and one of her new favourite composers, Richard Strauss.
Since September 2020, Eliza's been working at the Bayerische Staatsoper in Munich, taking part in their Opera Studio training programme, and performing roles on the main stage.
Eliza tells Lynn Freeman that, like so many singers before her, she honed her vocal cords singing gospel music in church, alongside her parents and five siblings.
Soprano Eliza Boom will be performing at the Auckland Opera Studio Opera Gala on the 21st of August at the Auckland Town Hall.
