“Soprano Victoria Botero is one of Kansas City’s most passionate and caring performers. A concert by Botero is more than just a recital of beautiful songs, it’s a reflection on the human condition.”
Victoria Botero, Soprano, enjoys an exciting and entrepreneurial career encompassing repertoire from medieval to New Music, from opera, to concert, to traditional music from around the world. After performing in more than 18 languages, Victoria feels most at home communicating with an audience through the direct language of emotion.
