Four-time Grammy winner Renée Fleming will captivate Houston with her sumptuous voice, consummate artistry, and compelling stage presence. From the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize ceremony to performances in Beijing during the 2008 Olympic Games, Fleming is one of the most sought after voices around the world. In 2013, President Obama awarded her the National Medal of Arts, America's highest honor for an individual artist.

Fleming continues to grace the world’s greatest opera stages and concert halls with her award-winning soprano voice. Fleming will be accompanied by Richard Bado, a chorus master in the Houston Grand Opera for over 30 seasons, who has been collaborating with Fleming for over 35 years since their college days in recitals, concerts and operas.

Renée Fleming is one of the most acclaimed singers of the modern day, performing on the stages of the world’s greatest opera houses and concert halls. Honored with five Grammy awards and the US National Medal of Arts, she has sung for momentous occasions from the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony to the Super Bowl.

In November 2022, she starred in the world premiere of the The Hours, a new opera based on the award-winning novel and film, at the Metropolitan Opera, and in March 2023 she appeared in a new production of Nixon in China at the Opéra de Paris.

With Yannick Nézet-Séguin, Fleming won the 2023 Grammy for Best Classical Vocal Solo, for Voice of Nature: the Anthropocene, an album focused on nature as both inspiration and victim of human activity.
