Katie Masters from Southgate Opera has been in touch to pass on some exciting news:
Palmers Green born and bred mezzo soprano Stephanie Wake-Edwards has been selected to represent England in the prestigious BBC Cardiff Singer of the World competition in June.
Here is a feature about the competitors including Stephanie.

As one of the Jette Parker Young Artists at the Royal Opera House, she has been heavily involved in many of their streamed performances during the last year.
Here's a recording of Stephanie, accompanied by Susanna Stranders, on the stage of a locked down and deserted Opera House, but engaging beautifully with her unseen audience.
