Canadian mezzo-soprano Emily D’Angelo earned her second Juno Award last month for her album freezing. The win caps off an extraordinary 2024-25 season for the NTCI alum, who recently received critical acclaim last fall for her starring performance in the new opera Grounded at the Met Opera.
Freezing is D’Angelo’s second album and features 17 songs by composers such as Philip Glass, Henry Purcell and Jeanine Tesori. It was also named by NPR as one of the best 50 albums of 2024. D’Angelo won her first Juno in 2022 for her debut record, energeia.
Since graduating NTCI in 2012, D’Angelo has experienced a meteoric rise to fame in the classical music world, and is considered one of Canada’s greatest opera stars. She made her stage debut at 21 and was previously named one of CBC’s “Top 30 under 30” classical artists. In 2016, D’Angelo returned to NTCI to perform as a soloist in Mozart’s “Requiem” for a special edition of Maytime Melodies.
