Who is Amber P. Garrett?

Never saw myself as a blogger girl, however, I’m told to get yourself out there on the internet, Blog post is where its at. So here we are. Who is Amber Garrett? The formal answer is…

Soprano Amber P. Garrett, graduate of both Hampton University and The Boston Conservatory, is hailed for her “robust, connected voice with intense conviction”. Her accomplishments are diverse and noteworthy, including performing for dignitaries around the world such as the late Justice Ginsburg, University Presidents, and NATO Dignitaries. From the TODAY Show to Chautauqua Opera, she ignites stages worldwide, earning a standing ovation as Suor Angelica in Naples during her European Debut and enthralling audiences along the Amalfi Coast. Committed to diversity in her artistry, she established APMusic LLC, and also arranged, produced and released her debut album,“Project: Journey”, showcasing her versatility and depth. Most recently, Amber made history, becoming the first artist to record the role of Queen Mother in the 2023 GRAMMY-nominated opera “X: The Life and Times of Malcolm X with Odyssey Opera and BMOP.”She also sang Social worker in this production. 

This “thrilling artist” seeks inclusion in classical music and provides genuine, heart-stirring performances that resonate globally.

The informal answer is I was born and raised in Norfolk, Va. A Church girl that got in to opera completely by fate at a “late age” 18 , lol. I’m a Multi-Genre, Classically trained performer who seeks freedom in my artistry and created APMusic LLC to do that. I seek to share the stories and songs I love. I seek to be who I needed as a younger artist to whoever needs me. I seek genuine connection on and off stage. I seek truth in this crazy industry. I seek to curate performances for ALL types of audiences. I have done the young artist thing across the country and have been told some great things and not so great things, but, I’ve always held on to the truth that, Performance and engagement in the arts is what I’m suppose to be doing, even if doors are slammed in my face, or if my talent is ignored. I’m still all around, “That girl”. I’m open about my journey because I know others have had ups and downs and I pride myself on being a safe space to let others know, YOU ARE NOT ALONE. JUST KEEP GOING.

In this blog, I’ll share the journey and my projects… Maybe even some advice as I learn and expand my brand. 

If you’ve made it to the end of this, THANK YOU! Go ahead and follow me on my socials, and let’s continue this journey together.
