Biography

Sharon Sweet has appeared in leading roles in several major venues in Europe and the United States and has made notable contributions to several recordings, in particular "Lohengrin", "Der Freischütz", "Don Giovanni", and "Il Trovatore". In 1999, she accepted a full-time teaching position at Westminster Choir College. In a column in "Opera News", Sweet stated that she made the move out of frustration with the current operatic scene which emphasized physical appearance over voice. She cited her struggles with Hashimoto's Syndrome, a thyroid condition.
