About Adrienne Ivey

Adrienne Ivey graduated with honors from the University of Michigan with a Bachelor's degree in Vocal Performance and a Teaching Certificate in K-12 Vocal Music. She also holds a Master of Music degree from the University of Maryland's prestigious Maryland Opera Studio. In 2019, Ms. Ivey was invited to join the faculty at The Catholic University of America’s Benjamin Rome School of Music, in Washington, D.C. as an Adjunct Professor of Voice.  She also maintained a position at Suitland High School for 5 years as a voice teacher, instructing her students to sing in Italian, German, French and Latin. Ms. Ivey operates her own private music studio, Ivey League Lessons, where she teaches voice, piano, and basic musicianship.

Locally, as a soloist, she appeared with the ensemble in Mozart’s Coronation 

Mass on the first ever Wheaton Conversation Concert, an annual bi-

lingual music and educational event held by ChorSymphonica, 

funded in part by the Wheaton Cultural Grants program of the Arts 

and Humanities Council of Montgomery County. 

An avid performer, Adrienne Ivey has toured with the New York 

Harlem Productions company of Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess, 

appearing as the Strawberry Woman in some of the most important 

European venues including the Komische Oper Berlin.

Among her many domestic appearances, she was not only a regular chorister with the Washington National Opera, but in the spring of 2013, she made her principal role debut as a "Madrigale" in Puccini's Manon Lescaut at the Kennedy Center.

She's very excited to return to Music and Arts to teach students of all levels in Springfield, Virginia.
