Lyra Dominguez is a trained soprano, specializing in opera and art songs.
After her lead role in the recent CATS production of “Flower Drum Song,” Lyra relocated to the Twin Cities area, and now performs locally with various music and theatrical groups.
Ms. Dominguez has appeared in numerous shows since 2005, from nonprofit concerts to opera, including Sacramento Opera productions: Strauss' Die Fledermaus, Puccini's Turandot, Verdi's Aida, Bizet's Carmen and Gilbert and Sullivan's The Pirates of Penzance. Lyra is a recipient of the Birdsall Award for her role as Tuptim in Magic Circle Theatre's production of Rodgers and Hammerstein's The King and I and a nominee of the William Shakespeare Award for her role of Sally Brown in Stockton Civic Theatre's production of You're a good man, Charlie Brown.

The concert consists mostly of Broadway songs, some well-known, others more obscure gems, also contains a few popular operatic arias.
