A Kansas University voice professor earned a positive mention in The New York Times recently for her performance in Gian Carlo Menotti’s opera “The Consul” at the Glimmerglass Opera in New York City.

A photo of Joyce Castle is on the first page of the link, and, later in the review, a reference is made to the veteran performer as an “always excellent” mezzo soprano.

Castle is a professor in KU’s School of Music who has performed in numerous other roles since her debut with the New York City opera in 1983.
