Soprano Amber R. Monroe joins the roster of Promethean Artists for world wide general management. Recognized by Seen and Heard-International as “a crystalline lyric soprano and a superb singing actress,” Ms. Monroe is a recent alumna of the Cafritz Young Artists Program at Washington National Opera, the Santa Fe Opera as an Apprentice Artist program, and the prestigious Merola Opera Program at San Francisco Opera.

“I am humbled to be amongst this incredible roster,” Ms. Monroe said. “In forging my career path, I feel blessed to have a team that supports and prioritizes the artist, allowing for authentic creativity and genuine connection to the overall community.”

"I first had the pleasure of hearing Amber sing Mimi at Washington National Opera, and was really captivated by her wonderful artistry and innate talent for storytelling,” Associate Director of Orchestral Booking and Artist Manager Callan Coughlan said. “She has already achieved an incredible amount in her career and it feels like a real honour to join her on the next stages of her journey. We're incredibly excited about having Amber join the roster.”

Ms. Monroe added “I look forward to embarking on this collaborative journey with Promethean Artists, especially Callan. He has truly aided in building a secure foundation in which our working relationship can grow, and for that I am immensely grateful. This is only just the beginning!”

The 2023 - 2024 season includes company debuts with the Chattanooga Symphony and Opera singing Mimì in La bohème and with the Arizona Opera in their New Works Festival, as well as a return to The Glimmerglass Festival, reprising the role of Nedda. On the concert stage, she sings Vivaldi’s Gloria and Margaret Bonds' The Ballad of the Brown King with the Arlington Chorale and Brahms' Ein Deutsches Requiem with Lehigh University, and appears in further concerts with the Birmingham Opera.

Announced engagements of Ms. Monroe’s 2024 - 2025 season include a highly anticipated return to Washington National Opera to perform the role of Serena in Porgy & Bess.

Ms. Monroe has recently been named a 2023 winner of the Sullivan Foundation Award and the George and Nora London Foundation Competition. She is a 2021 recipient of the Richard F. Gold Career Grant from The Shoshana Foundation, and she has also received recognition in competitions such as the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions, the Opera Index Vocal Competition, the Gerda Lissner Foundation IVC, the Annapolis Opera Voice Competition, the Mildred Miller International Voice Competition with the Pittsburgh Festival Opera, and the Classical Singer Competition.
