A Christmas Spectacular!

’Tis the season to spread love, joy, and holiday cheer! From traditional hymns to upbeat modern classics, Heather performs her signature classical crossover sound with a live orchestra.

Heather Ivy, an internationally acclaimed modern classical soprano, has made a career on both land and sea cruising through multiple styles and genres of music. From Bocelli to Broadway, Heather’s versatility and genuine warmth shine through everything she does. Shortly after moving to New York City, her professional career began with the Broadway International Tour of Disney’s Beauty and the Beast and Off-Broadway’s Christmas Wrappings. She has since appeared in musicals such as The Music Man, Guys and Dolls, Little Women, as well as operas Don Giovanni, L’Elisir d’Amor, and The Marriage of Figaro. As a symphonic soloist, Heather has appeared at Artis-Naples, with Southwest Florida Symphony Orchestra, Fort Myers Mastersingers Orchestra, Ave Maria Symphony Orchestra, Gulf Coast Symphony, and multiple concert bands throughout Florida. An avid traveler, Heather has headlined performing arts centers across the country and luxury cruise lines around the world. In addition to singing, Heather has enjoyed working as an emcee and model for Naples Fashion Week and other charity and corporate events.

While earning her Bachelor of Music from Oklahoma City University, Heather studied under Florence Birdwell, the legendary teacher of Broadway stars Kristin Chenoweth and Kelli O’Hara. Heather continues to study extensively with New York-based Broadway voice teacher Andrew Byrne and acting coach Jen Waldman. Heather is now based in Naples, where she runs her private voice studio, Heather Ivy Music, and is a guest teacher for Opera Naples, Naples Players, and Florida Gulf Coast University.
