KARISHMA is a highly trained soprano coloratura singer with an unusually wide vocal range spanning F#4 to Bb6, allowing her the versatility to perform across multiple genres and in multiple languages. Her unique style is influenced by a rich blend of operatic and popular music traditions. 

Karishma’s classical foundation was laid at the Conservatory of Music in Puerto Rico, followed by private coaching with Metropolitan Opera professionals in New York City. In 2006, she earned a BA in Liberal Arts with a concentration in Jazz Popular Music (Voice specialization) and an MA in Pedagogy from the Inter American Metro University of Puerto Rico.

Her performance highlights include collaborations with notable artists and tours at acclaimed venues such as The Blumenthal Performing Arts of North Carolina with her Gipsy Rumba Flamenco duet Karish & Vadim Kolpakov, “Concert for One” at Harvard University, and “Virgenes del Sol” at Boston’s Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. She has also performed in “A Christmas Concert” at Centro de Bellas Artes de P.R. Her operatic debuts include the title role of “Lakme” in Delibes’ French opera, and the Queen of the Night in Mozart’s “Die Zauberflöte,” performing arias such as “Der Hölle Rache” and “O zittre nicht mein lieber Sohn.” Additionally, she has performed in Strauss’ “Die Fledermaus” and Verdi’s “La Traviata,” accompanied by the Puerto Rico Symphony Orchestra. Karishma has also toured as “Fantasia” the featured vocalist at the International Aqua Circus.

Drawing on her extensive experience, Karishma is also an expert voice teacher, songwriter, actress, and high fashion model. Passionate about her artistry, she aims to inspire and captivate her audiences. Recently relocating to the north, she is currently performing with the choir at The Hartford “Christ Church Cathedral” and is eager to pursue further studies and new musical projects. Karishma believes in the power of music as a universal language that strengthens, connects, and empowers our minds and souls!
