Artist Bios:

 

A Winner of the Beverly Hills Auditions of the Consortium of Southern California Chamber Music Presenters, Adriana Zoppo performs on the violin, viola, baroque violin, baroque viola, and the rarely heard viola d’amore. She has played regularly with the Santa Barbara, Pacific, and Long Beach Symphonies, Pasadena Pops, Long Beach Opera, St. Matthew Chamber Orchestra and other ensembles in the area. Director/Curator of the Glendale Noon Concerts’early music sub-series Adriana, with Ergo Musica, is heard there frequently. Previously a member of the Carmel Bach Festival and L.A. Baroque Orchestra, she plays with the original instrument ensembles Musica Angelica Baroque Orchestra, L.A. Baroque Players, Bach Collegium San Diego and the Corona del Mar Baroque Festival, where she has appeared as viola d'amore soloist.  Adriana has played for motion pictures, TV shows, video games, solo artist recordings, Broadway musicals, and live shows of all musical styles from classical to jazz, and was part of the band for the musical Hamilton during its recent run in Los Angeles. Adriana holds a Bachelors degree from U.S.C. and Masters from the University of Michigan, both in violin performance.

A native of Southern California, Diane Plaster has been singing professionally for over 25 years.  She has enjoyed working with many choirs and orchestras throughout Los Angeles and surrounding areas.  Her experience as a soprano soloist has taken her on international singing tours with various groups including Pacific Chorale, the Wagner Ensemble, and St. Matthew’s Parish Choir. She has had the pleasure of singing with many local prestigious ensembles including Los Angeles Master Chorale, L.A. Chamber Singers and Angeles Chorale, and also worked as Assistant Stage Manager for L.A. Opera, and Assistant Director for USC Opera.  Many highlights of her career include performing as a vocal soloist for Ballet Pacifica’s “Liebeslieder Waltzes” (Brahms), “Carmina Burana” (Orff) and “Les Noces” (Stravinsky) with Ventura Master Chorale and Antelope Valley Master Chorale. A much sought after clinician of early childhood music education Ms. Plaster created effective music programs for military children in Los Angeles and several Elementary schools (including Montessori) in the South Bay. She has a background in choral conducting and currently teaches piano and voice for children and adults alike. 

Recently described by Early Music America as “a special artist with a brilliant future,” Alexa Haynes-Pilon is originally from Canada, where she performed with many of the city’s leading baroque musicians and Tafelmusik Baroque Orchestra, under Christina Mahler. A founding member of baroque ensembles Rezonance and Concitato 415 she plays principal cello with Musica Angelica Baroque Orchestra, and has appeared in most of the major early music festivals in North America including the Tafelmusik Winter Institute and Summer Institute, the American Bach Soloists Academy in San Francisco, Vancouver Early Music, and the Berkeley Early Music Festival. Alexa also plays viola da gamba, baroque bassoon and dulcian and recently completed a Doctorate at USC.  Alexa believes strongly that the future of classical music lies in youth education. She is a co-director of Los Angeles Baroque (LAB), a community baroque orchestra.
