Felici Opera
Jessica Wiley
Coloratura Soprano
Jessica started taking singing lessons whilst at school and soon joined the National Youth Choir of Great Britain. She has sung in choral performances across the UK and Europe and recorded the popular Millenium Mass for Peace by Karl Jenkins. Jessica studied music at Royal Holloway University, focusing on vocal performance alongside a choral scholarship. She was a regular soloist for oratorio and opera performances and lunchtime recitals. Following university, Jessica was a member of the Chorus of the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, whilst working for ABRSM. She now teaches singing and directs choirs alongside looking after her two young children. She enjoys Leider and French Song but especially loves opera, particularly when there are lots of fast, high notes.
Having taken a break from performing to raise her family, she was delighted to sing the role of Barbarina with Felici in "The Marriage of Figaro"and of Adele in Felici's interpretation of "Die Fledermaus" (A Night in Vienna - Gala! March 2018). Jessica is a member of Felici's Three Soprano trio.
