Lara Secord-Haid is a versatile singing artist with a rich artistic practice. Her work as an opera and classical singing artist has been praised for its “impassioned strength” (Classical Scene) and for being “capable of the highest flights of coloratura and possessing a rich and expressive overall quality” (Attencion San Miguel). Lara explores a wide range of classically informed music, from the antique to contemporary. Beyond the traditional and avant-garde, she has immersed herself in the captivating world of Sephardic music. This love resonates through her commission and performance of new works within this genre.

​

This season, Lara will perform as Cendrillon with Comic (Book) Opera, Addie Mills in The House without a Christmas Tree, by Ricky Ian Gordon and Royce Vavrek with The Little Opera Company in Winnipeg. She will be producing and performing digital media projects with Composers Alf Bishai and Daniel Janke.
