Early success for Yvette was winning the Clifton Prize for best final recital on her graduation from the Royal Academy of Music. She has been in great demand ever since as a Soprano soloist in the UK and Internationally, having performed in numerous concerts alongside luminaries such as Placido Domingo, Bryn Terfel, trumpeter Alison Balsom and clarinettist Michael Collins. Her lyrical voice shone through at her debut at the Wigmore Hall with The Academy of St. Martin in the Fields, where she sang Britten's Les Illuminations to great critical acclaim. Most recently Yvette has appeared as the soloist in the World Premiere of Joep Fransens Grace at the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam conducted by Vassily Petrenko.
“Soprano Yvette Bonner contributed a lovely silvery tone … her solos were among the highlights of the evening…”
