Binny-Supin Yang

Korean soprano Binny-Supin Yang has been praised by Bachtrack as “the youngest Queen of the Night I’ve heard and one of the finest. Every note was a jewel, every giddy peak of her coloratura a glittering diamond.”

In 2026, she makes her U.S. debut as the Queen of the Night in Die Zauberflöte (Mozart) under Patrick Summers, performing as an Aspen Renée Fleming Artist Fellow, before returning to Korea for a solo recital at the Seoul Arts Centre as a Hyundai Motor Chung Mong-Koo Foundation Artist. Upcoming engagements also include covering the role of First Niece in Peter Grimes for Opera North in 2026.

Recent highlights include her debut as First Niece in Peter Grimes with British Youth Opera in collaboration with the Cambridge Philharmonic Orchestra, and her house debut at Opera Confidencen in Sweden as a Young Artist specialising in Baroque repertoire. She is also a 2025 Leeds Song Young Artist.

Operatic roles to date include the Queen of the Night in Die Zauberflöte (Mozart) under Olivia Clarke, Gretel in Hänsel und Gretel (Humperdinck) under Johann Stuckenbruck, Emmie in Albert Herring (Britten) under Geoffrey Paterson, and Dalinda in Ariodante (Handel) under David Bates. Further credits include Madame Herz in Der Schauspieldirektor and Blonde in Die Entführung aus dem Serail (Mozart) in opera scenes under Peter Robinson.

In concert, she has appeared at Wigmore Hall, the Korea Cultural Centre UK, Kumho Art Hall Yonsei, the Seoul Arts Centre, the Busan Culture Centre, and the Italian Cultural Institute UK. She works across opera and song, and performs regularly in recital with programmes including German Lied, French mélodie, English song, and Korean art song. She is a member of the Academy Song Circle and a Josephine Baker Trust Artist.

Binny is a 2025 recipient of an Opera Awards Foundation bursary. She is an alumna of the Georg Solti Accademia& Seoul Arts Centre Emerging Artist Programme, and the Kumho Arts Foundation Young Artist Concert Programme. She completed her undergraduate studies at Seoul National University as a Hyundai Motor Chung Mong-Koo Foundation Scholar, a scholarship she continues to hold and graduated with distinction from the Royal Academy of Music as an ABRSM International Postgraduate Scholar, later completing the Royal Academy Opera as a Bicentenary Scholar under the tutelage of Mary Nelson and Jonathan Papp.
