Maria Abous

Crossover soprano Maria Abous is a rising star with recent solo appearances on sold-out stages including Carnegie Hall, Jazz at Lincoln Center, Birdland, Pebble Bar, 54 Below and Baretto.

Celebrated as “the embodiment of a leading lady” (Woman Around Town) and “funny, touching, and very musical, delivering her spoken and sung lines with assurance and expert timing” (Opera Canada Magazine), Maria holds a B.A. in Music from Columbia University and a Master’s in Voice Performance from Longy School of Music.

Maria's debut album Crescendo — which reimagines jazz and theater standards as love songs from mother to child — has been featured on Spotify playlists alongside Josh Groban and Michael Bublé. Her highly-anticipated album Merry Little Christmas will be released this holiday season.
