About Caitlin

Dr. Caitlin Moore, mezzo-soprano, is known for her elegant and confident stage presence across diverse vocal styles. She has been praised for her "aplomb and distinction" (Opera Canada) and "magnifique talent vocal et dramatique" (La Presse).

Moore's recent engagements highlight her versatility including the title roles in the world premieres of Paul Elwood's operas, The Taming and Hedy Lamarr: Snow White Under the Knife, the alto solos in Mozart's Requiem with the Grand Junction Symphony, Fiona in Brigadoon with Loveland Opera Theatre, and lead vocals with a local Celtic folk band.

Moore was nationally recognized to participate in the highly-selective 2021 National Association of Teachers of Singing Intern Program and currently serves as the Colorado-Wyoming NATS Chapter President. Additionally, she was certified in all three levels at Shenandoah University's Contemporary Commercial Music Vocal Pedagogy Institute, participated in New England Conservatory's Acoustic Vocal Pedagogy Workshop and Online Teaching Technology Workshop, attended Boston Conservatory at Berklee’s Vocal Pedagogy Professional Workshop, and is working toward a certificate in vocology through the Summer Vocology Institute.

Moore holds the position of Instructor of Voice at Colorado Mesa University where she teaches voice and diction for singers and serves as the assistant director for the Commercial Ensemble. In 2024, she will begin her role as Assistant Professor of Voice. Additionally, she manages a thriving private voice studio and regularly conducts guest lectures and masterclasses nationwide. Prior to her current position, she served on the music faculties of Covenant College and Chattanooga State Community College.

Moore received a Doctorate of Arts in Voice Performance, with a secondary in vocal pedagogy, from the University of Northern Colorado; a Master of Music in Voice and Opera Performance from the Schulich School of Music, McGill University; and a Bachelor of Music and a Bachelor of Music Education from Lee University.

I am an advocate for vocal freedom, authenticity, and diversity. I strive to create brave spaces where singers are encouraged to develop their individual artistry through play, trust, and evidence-based functional vocal training.
