We are delighted to introduce one of our new 2025/26 choral scholars… Eva Hutchins (Mezzo-Soprano)

She is in her final year of undergraduate vocal studies at Trinity Laban training under Yolanda Grant-Thompson and Panaretos Kyriatzidis. Whilst studying at Trinity she has been part of the Old Royal Naval College Chapel Choir, Trinity Laban Chamber Choir and part of the chorus in Trinity Laban’s summer productions of Dido’s Ghost by Errollyn Wallen and Frankenstein by Libby Larsen, in addition to various postgraduate opera scenes.
She most recently performed as Third Priestess in Blackheath Hall’s opera production Iphigenia in Tauris by Gluck as well as being alto chorus leader. This summer she also took on a featured ensemble role in Trinity Laban’s production of Monteverdi’s Il Ritorno d’Ulisse in Patria.
In summer 2024 Eva sang with Dorset Opera Festival Chorus for their production of Puccini’s Madama Butterfly and premiered a new opera, Under The Greenwood Tree by Paul Carr based on the Thomas Hardy novel.
Prior to conservatoire study she was part of the Kinder Choirs directed by Joyce Ellis MBE, performing at Buxton Opera House and in the children’s chorus for Puccini’s Suor Angelica with Opera North.
