ABOUT ME
Susanna Su/Aslanian is a classically trained soprano who loves teaching both voice and piano lessons in her home studio in Boonton, NJ. As an educator, Susanna is committed to providing quality musical education to both children and adults and fostering a lifetime of musical enjoyment.
As a performer, Susanna finds joy in bringing music to life for audiences. Susanna’s professional operatic credits include roles in Don Pasquale, Die Zauberflöte (The Magic Flute), The Gondoliers, The Turn of the Screw, and La Périchole. In musical theatre, she has also performed the roles of Lady Thiang in The King and I and Mrs. Nordstrom in A Little Night Music. As a choral singer, one of her most memorable moments was being one of 37 singers selected internationally for Carnegie Hall's Tallis Scholars Training Workshop, where she sang with the Thomas Tallis’ magnum opus Spem in alium. Susanna has enjoyed singing with choirs throughout northern New Jersey and New York, such as the Summit Chorale, Choral Arts Society of NJ, and C4, a New York-based choral composer/conductor collective focusing exclusively on performing and commissioning new choral works.
Susanna holds a Master of Music degree in Vocal Performance from New England Conservatory and a Bachelor of Music from Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers University.
In addition to her private teaching and performing life, Susanna has the blessing of serving the Diocese of Paterson as Director of Sacred Music at St. Vincent de Paul Parish in Stirling, and as music teacher for grades 1-5 at Our Lady of Mount Carmel School in Boonton.
