Biography
British soprano Charlotte Du-Cann is a student of Sarah Pring, and is currently studying her masters degree in Vocal Studies at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama. She was awarded Joint First-Prize at the Dean & Chadlington Singing Competition in July 2025, and recently performed as a finalist in the Chris Treglown Foundation Fund Singing Competition in April 2026. Charlotte is supported by the Sir Richard Stapley Educational Trust, The Friends of Music in Winchester, and the Josephine Baker Trust.
Charlotte has recently performed the roles of Musetta in Puccini's La bohème, and Servillia in Mozart's La Clemenza di Tito in Guildhall Opera Scenes in March 2026, as well as performing in the chorus for Guildhall’s Autumn Opera production of Ethyl Smyth’s Der Wald in November 2025. She is an alumni of the Morley Opera School in London, with performed roles including Tytania from Britten’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Martha from Flotow’s Martha, Calisto from Cavalli’s La Calisto, Flora from Britten’s The Turn of the Screw, L’Apprentie from Charpentier’s Louise, and Une Pastourelle from Ravel’s L’enfant. She was also a member of the chorus for Mozart’s La Clemenza di Tito, Rossini’s Le Comte Ory, and Handel’s Serse. Charlotte looks forward to joining Waterperry Opera Festival this summer as part of the Quintet Chorus in Donizetti’s The Elixir of Love.
She achieved a first-class degree in music from the University of Bristol, specialising in performance. Alongside her studies, she made her operatic debut as the Queen of the Night in Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte, and went on to perform the roles of Phyllis in G&S’s Iolanthe, and Ida in J. Strauss’ Die Fledermaus, as part of the Bristol University Operatic Society. She balanced her performance commitments with novel academic research into the character and music of Ophélie in Ambroise Thomas’s opera, Hamlet, specifically focusing on her ‘mad’ scene under a feminist lens.

“Charlotte Du-Cann has a voice which really made me sit up”
“There were a number of qualities about her voice, but amongst them were excellent diction in whichever language she was singing, and a truly commanding breath control which stands her in very good stead for some of the most brutal and dramatic arias”
