Laura Betinis, mezzo soprano

Originally from Amherst Junction, WI, mezzo soprano Laura Betinis holds a BA in English and Music from Ithaca College, where she sang with the Ithaca College Women's Chorale under the direction of Janet Galván and the Ithaca College Choir under the direction of Lawrence Doebler.

In addition to singing with Cappella Clausura, Laura is also a member of The Oriana Consort, a small choral ensemble based in Cambridge, MA. Recently a featured soloist for the Boston premiere of Erich Zeisl's Requiem Ebraico, Betinis has been praised for her "particularly rich tone with a flexible line."

A Project Manager at Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, she enjoys playing the mandolin and piano in her free time.
