Ms. Levy, a Long Island native, graduated from the New England Conservatory of Music with her Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance, studying with soprano Lisa Saffer. She participated the conservatory's Undergraduate Opera Studio production of Dido and Aeneas, singing the title female role, as well as in the ensemble of Die Fledermaus. In addition, she frequently performed with ensembles such as the NEC Chamber Singers and Concert Choir. Amanda is an advocate for new works, premiering the role of Willow Summers The Summers Case by Sonnet Swire, as well as other premieres.

She has performed in venues across the United States and Europe, participating in programs such as Opera in the Ozarks, Le chiavi di bel canto, Manhattan Opera Studio, AIMS in Graz, and the Manhattan School of Music Summer Voice Festival.

Amanda is looking forward to sharing her love for music with her students!
