Binny-Supin Yang

Binny-Supin Yang has been announced as a 2026 Renée Fleming Artist at the Aspen Music Festival and School, receiving a full scholarship. 

During the eight week residency, Binny will receive coaching and tuition from Renée Fleming and will perform Queen of the Night in Die Zauberflöte, directed by Paula Suozzi and conducted by Patrick Summers.

Delighted to announce three of our artists will appear in Opera North’s 2025/26 season.

Following acclaimed performances as Queen of the Night this season, Nazan Fikret returns to Opera North as First Niece in Phyllida Lloyd’s production of Peter Grimes. Additonally, Binny-Supin Yang joins Opera North covering this role.

Making his company debut Mark Nathan joins the Opera North Youth Chorus and Youth Orchestra as Count Heinrich in Judith Weir’s historical comic thriller, The Secret of the Black Spider. Following that he returns as The Banana in David Fennessy’s Pass the Spoon, a sort-of opera about cookery – a darkly comic feast of words, music and puppetry, made with decidedly adult ingredients. Mark will then understudy the role of Ned Keene in Peter Grimes.  

Making her company debut Lauren Young is the mezzo soloist in The Big Opera Mysterya family show and musical extravaganza where some of the suspects  are some of the greatest opera characters of all time.

We are delighted that Korean soprano Binny-Supin Yang has joined our artist roster for general management. Binny is currently in her second year of the Royal Academy Opera course, where she studies with Mary Nelson and Jonathan Papp.

In 2025, Binny joins the Leeds Song Young Artist Programme and is a semi-finalist in the Kathleen Ferrier Award. Later this season she performs First Niece Peter Grimes for British Youth Opera.

For Royal Academy opera she has performed rols including Königin der Nacht Die Zauberflöte, Gretel Hänsel und Gretel, Emmie Albert Herring, Dalinda Ariodante, Madame Herz Der Schauspieldirektor, and opera scenes as Blonde Die Entführung aus dem Serail. Binny has performed in concert venues across Korea and the UK, including the Korea Cultural Centre UK, Kumho Art Hall Yonsei and Wigmore Hall.
