Mia Riker-Norrie, soprano, is the General Director of Opera Theatre of Montclair. The New York Times: “Mia Riker-Norrie played Musetta with sterling control and brassiness worthy of Ethel Merman.” Opera News: “Mia Riker-Norrie’s high-energy portrayal of Adele offered dazzling top notes.” The Villager: She “inspired confidence from the moment she took the stage and retained full vocal command throughout. Her Violetta was exciting…with artfully spontaneous diminuendos and descending phrases that draped themselves with silken fluidity.” The Sun: As Gilda, she “consistently hit the high notes in the score (not something that happens on a regular basis uptown).” Mia is also the Director of Montclair Voice Studio and lives in Montclair with her husband and three children.
