BIO
Best known for her role as Christine in the Las Vegas production of The Phantom of the Opera, Kristen Hertzenberg has proven her ability to sing anything in her concerts, performing music ranging from opera to Broadway to blues. As one writer at the Las Vegas Weekly stated, "Hertzenberg reaches out to her audience with so much personality, skill, emotion, and vocal power that it's no surprise Desert Companion Magazine named her Best Torch Singer."
Raised in the Houston area, Hertzenberg studied at the University of Texas and earned a master's degree in opera at the Longy School of Music in Boston. She also studied at the Austrian American Mozart Academy in Salzburg, Austria and was a first place winner in the National Opera Association competition. After touring Europe in the musical Hair, she moved to Las Vegas for Phantom where she played her dream role in over 1000 performances. She has also enjoyed playing Sophie in Terrence McNally's Master Class, Heidi in [title of show], and starring as Dyanne in the long-running Las Vegas production of the Tony award winning musical Million Dollar Quartet.
As a featured soloist, Hertzenberg performs on pops concerts with various symphonies and offers her cabaret evenings in venues across the country. She also created two dynamic shows spotlighting her vocal versatility and performed them several times a year on the main stages aboard the Celebrity Cruises and the ultra-luxury cruise line Seabourn. In Las Vegas, she was a regular in The Smith Center's prestigious Cabaret Jazz room, performing to sold-out audiences both with her band and with acclaimed pianist and Broadway veteran Philip Fortenberry. The two previously collaborated on their album Holidays from the Heart, available on Apple Music, Spotify, Amazon Music, and other online streaming services.
Hertzenberg's vocal versatility is impressive and her genuine personality brings a warmth to her performances that leaves audiences wanting more. For these and many other attributes, critics have called her delivery "perfect" and her voice "gorgeous" and "limitless."

The Las Vegas Philharmonic and Music Director Donato Cabrera announced the 2018 - 2019 concert season today, which will include 13 performances from September 15, 2018 - May 11, 2019 at The Smith Center for the Performing Arts. This marks the orchestra's 20th concert season and Cabrera's 5th season as Music Director for the Las Vegas Philharmonic. The upcoming season begins with works by Leonard Bernstein as part of a world-wide celebration of his 100th birthday and the orchestra performs selections from West Side Story and Candide. Other composers featuring prominently in the new season include Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Mozart, Tchaikovsky, John Williams and others. The critically-acclaimed horror film Psycho will be presented in full on the large screen with the orchestra performing the entire spine-tingling score live in a concert for film and music lovers alike in October. In November, a piano concerto composed by Philip Glass and commissioned by the Las Vegas Philharmonic as part of a consortium of orchestras will be performed by pianist Simone Dinnerstein. Two holiday concerts in December will delight with nostalgia and feature a special reading of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas as well as powerful vocal performances by Kristen Hertzenberg and Travis Cloer. Once again, we dedicate an entire evening to epic film scores by John Williams and perform music spanning four decades of fan favorites from films including Star Wars, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Harry Potter, and Memoirs of a Geisha in January. The orchestra features two of its own principal musicians, De Ann Letourneau (violin) and Andrew Smith (cello), as guest soloists in February's An Evening of Brahms. For the first time, the orchestra is joined by the group Time For Three, an American trio that boasts an uncommon mix of virtuosity and showmanship on music from Bach to Brahms in addition to originals and their own arrangements of everything from bluegrass to mash-ups of hits by the Beatles, Justin Timberlake and more at the March 2019 concert. In April, the second installment of the Music Unwound initiative with the National Endowment for the Humanities explores Czech composer Antonin Dvo?ak and his New World Symphony. The Philharmonic's chorus-in-residence, the Las Vegas Master Singers will perform at the holiday concerts in addition to May's presentation of Beethoven's Symphony No. 9. Marking the third year of the orchestra's American German Cultural Exchange Fellowship, violinist Thomas Reif will perform Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto in May's season finale. In a finale befitting a 20th Anniversary celebration, acclaimed vocalists Felicia Moore (soprano), Kelley O'Connor (Grammy Award-winning mezzo-soprano), Sean Panikkar (tenor) and Raymond Aceto (bass) will also perform on Beethoven's Symphony No. 9.
