A tenor at home on opera's grandest stages

Nova Abrahamian is a versatile tenor who has sung on some of the top stages in the United States. As a member of the chorus at the Los Angeles Opera, he performed in numerous productions, and as a principal soloist with the company's outreach programs he flexed both his acting and singing skills to reach younger audiences.

Nova has performed with the Los Angeles Philharmonic as part of the Los Angeles Master Chorale — both at Disney Hall and the Hollywood Bowl. He has sung leading roles with regional companies in the United States, including in musical theater. His performance in Guys and Dolls was hailed by critics as "a delight."

Nova also maintains an active recital schedule.
