--Biography--

Canadian mezzo-soprano, Christina Campsall, was praised by SCHMOPERA for her “focused and rich sound, and her top is really thrilling especially for a mezzo with a middle voice like hers”, after her performance in Berio’s Folk Songs at the Glenn Gould School. OPERA CANADA declared, “The standout was Christina Campsall’s Hélène. She combined a beautiful, dark-toned mezzo with great acting and movement skills”, after her performance as the title role in Offenbach’s La belle Héléne in the spring 2015 opera at the Glenn Gould School. In the 2015/16 season, Christina performed as Lucretia in MYOpera's production of Britten's The Rape of Lucretia, as well as Ruggiero in Handel’s Alcina, and Elle in Poulenc’s La voix humaine, with the Glenn Gould School.

Christina Campsall's 2014-15 season included receiving the Nina Anshell and Liliane Szenteleky Vocal Scholarships, after entering the Artist Diploma Program at the Glenn Gould School. She performed as the alto soloist with the Royal Conservatory Orchestra in Beethoven's Symphony No. 9. Ms. Campsall was also awarded first place in the Graduate School Level/Young Professional category at the 2014 NATS Competition, and placed second in the 2014/15 Clifford Poole Vocal Competition. She later appeared as a featured soloist with the Grammy award winning Estonian National Male Choir, and the Cathedral Bluffs Symphony Orchestra as they performed Brahm's Alto Rhapsody.

Ms. Campsall frequently sings for Voicebox: Opera in Concert and has performed in diverse roles, such as Laura (Die Freunde von Salamanka), Albine (Thaïs), Lady Essex (Gloriana), and Oenone (Hippolyte et Aricie).
