Timeline

1952

June Anderson (born December 30, 1952) is a Grammy Award-winning American coloratura soprano.

She is known for bel canto performances of Rossini, Donizetti, and Vincenzo Bellini.

Subsequently, she has extended her repertoire to include a wide variety of other roles, including those from the Russian repertoire and works by Richard Strauss.

1968

In 1968, she sang in a production of Haydn's "L'infedeltà delusa" at Yale University.

1970

She attended Lyman Hall High School where she was the 5th highest in academic standing among 505 graduates in the class of 1970.

She began vocal studies at age 11 and at age 17 was the youngest finalist (at that time) in the Metropolitan Opera auditions.

She received a degree from Yale University in French, graduating cum laude and then decided to pursue a career in singing.

Anderson studied voice under Robert Leonard in New York City.

She had numerous auditions but no engagements at first.

She has said that she continued her pursuit as a challenge, giving herself a deadline of two years (after which she would, if unsuccessful, enter law school).

"No one wanted to know my name. I was down to my last $50. That's when I decided I was going to be a singer if it killed me!"

Anderson sang in several productions in the Yale/New Haven area while still a high school student.

In 1970 she appeared as Gilda with the New Haven Opera Company in a production of Verdi's Rigoletto.

1978

She made her professional opera debut as the Queen of the Night in Mozart's The Magic Flute at the New York City Opera in 1978.

Several years later, she would voice the Queen of the Night in the Oscar-winning Amadeus, directed by Miloš Forman.

While at New York City Opera, she sang in a wide range of operas including The Golden Cockerel by Rimsky-Korsakov, Rigoletto and La Traviata by Verdi, Rossini's Il barbiere di Siviglia, Giulio Cesare by Handel, and Mozart's Don Giovanni (as Elvira).

After being recommended to an Italian agent by Sherrill Milnes, she made her European performance debut in 1982 in the title role of Rossini's Semiramide in Rome.
